Nevada Property Search (5 steps)

In order to begin a property search in Nevada, you will need to go to the Nevada Clerks and Recorders website in the county in which the property is located and determine whether they have online search capability or whether you will have to go to the recorder’s office in person. The following is an example of how to begin a property search in Clark County:

Step 1

Click on the Recorder’s website for the county of the property:

Step 2

Click on “Search Records Online“:

Step 3

In Clark County, you can search the database and get an abstract of documents, but in order to get a copy of the actual document, you will need to set up a subscription and pay. Alternatively, you can go to the recorder’s office directly. You should first search abstracts and keep track of which ones you will need copies of. So the first thing you want to do is enter the grantor’s name and then click “Search“.

Step 4

If you scroll down, you will see a list of documents. You will want to find the deed that originally transferred the property to the person from whom you are buying (the grantor), so check on the dates and property info to determine which document is the one you are looking for. You will then be able to know who transferred the property to the grantor and will be able to search that person’s name.

Step 5

Keep track of the documents using the instrument number that pertain to your property as you will want to have copies of them sent to you.
