Lyon County Property Tax Due Date

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.
