Understanding Your County Records and Your Property Valuation
As we close out the year, it is an ideal time to review your property information and ensure your public record accurately reflects your home.
In Clark County, every property has documents recorded through the Recorder’s Office. These include items like your deed, updates to ownership, and any liens or releases tied to your property. These records help protect your ownership and keep your property history accurate.
Clark County also offers a free Recording Notification System (RNS), which alerts you if any document is recorded under your name or parcel number. It’s a simple way to safeguard your property against unauthorized changes.
Understanding Your Annual Valuation Notice
Each year, the Assessor’s Office provides homeowners with a Property Valuation Notice, outlining the county’s assessed value of your home. This is not a tax bill — but it does show how your property is valued within the county’s assessment system.
Nevada applies a property tax cap, which limits how much your taxes can increase each year:
• 3 percent cap for a primary residence • 8 percent cap for non-primary or investment properties
These caps help keep annual property tax increases more predictable, even when your assessed value changes.
You can review your property details, valuation history, and tax cap information anytime at:
Your valuation notice is a helpful snapshot of how the county views your property, but it does not reflect your home’s current market value.
