Notice of Intent to Lien

Overview of Notice of Intent to Lien

A "15-Day Notice of Intent to Lien" is a warning notice that is served on the property owner and prime contractor to warn them that if payments are not made within 15 days, a lien will be registered against his/her property. This notice is only required for residential work of improvements in Nevada. Arizona and California do not require an interim warning notice.

According to N.R.S. Section 108.226(6), if a work of improvement involves the construction, alteration or repair of a multifamily or single-family residence, including, but not limited to apartment houses, a “15-day Notice of Intent to Lien” must be served on both the property owner and the reputed general contractor before filing a lien. Only commercial construction projects are exempt from serving the 15-day Notice of Intent to Lien.

A properly served 15-Day Notice of Intent to Lien gives an additional 15 day credit towards the construction lien filing deadline.
