Las Vegas Condo Tenants - To cancel Eviction or not?

Ben Smith
  • San Diego, CA
Posted

So I have a rental property in Las Vegas, where my tenants have been unable to pay since May; they have otherwise been great tenants until then. Well this quickly burned through all savings I have made for this unit. After failing to get an eviction granted before the second Nevada moratorium, I was finally granted an eviction in December. Due to the moratoriums and the fact that my tenants have filled out the CDC declaration, however, has stopped the constable from heading out to the property with the locksmith. Also had no luck with the landlord aid application (CHAP) in December.

Now it appears that one of my tenants has been re-hired with reduced hours, so they would be able to pay something. My main question is, given the complexity of the situation, can/should I cancel the eviction and work a deal with my tenants to minimize the further losses I would otherwise incur (I'm assuming the moratorium gets pushed to September, and some cash is better than none)?

What, if any, legal issues may I run into if I do decide to accept money from my tenants?
