About Property Taxes in Nevada
Nevada property taxes are administered at the county level. The Nevada Department of Taxation oversees assessment standards, while county assessors determine values. Nevada uses a unique assessment method: land is assessed at market value, while improvements (buildings) are assessed at replacement cost minus depreciation, not market value. The taxable assessed value equals 35% of the assessed value determined by this method. Nevada also has a strong tax abatement that caps annual property tax increases at 3% for primary residences and 8% for other properties, preventing large tax spikes even when values rise rapidly.
Payment & Assessment
Nevada property taxes can be paid in installments or in full: First installment (50% of annual tax): Due 3rd Monday in August Second installment (50% of annual tax): Due 1st Monday in January Alternatively, quarterly payments are accepted. A penalty of 4% applies to the first installment if late; additional penalties for subsequent late payments. Most counties offer online payment. Contact your county treasurer for payment options.

The county was established on March 5, 1869, from Lander County. Elko County is the fourth-largest county by area in the contiguous United States, ranking lower when the boroughs of Alaska are included. It is one of only 10 counties in the U.S. with more than 10,000 square miles (25,900 km2) of area. Elko County is the second-largest county by area in Nevada, with only Nye County being larger. Elko County is part of the Elko micropolitan statistical area. It contains 49.8 percent of the Duck Valley Indian Reservation, set up in the late 19th century for the Shoshone-Paiute peoples; they are a federally recognized tribe. Although slightly more than 50% of the reservation is across the border in Owyhee County, Idaho, the majority of tribal members live on the Nevada side. The reservation's land area is 450.391 square miles (1,166.5 km2).
