Generally, you cannot break your lease in Nevada for any reason, even if you can no longer afford to pay the rent. However, you may be able to negotiate a compromise with your landlord. For example, your landlord may allow you to terminate your lease early if you find a tenant to take over your lease. Or, your landlord may allow you to break your lease if the landlord can keep your security deposit. For more information, see http://www.nvsaa.org/index.php?src=gendocs&ref=RentersFAQ&cate.. [7]
