While there is an ambiguity under Nevada law regarding the rights of a tenant after a Notice of Default (but before foreclosure sale) to be able to elect to terminate a lease agreement, there is no ambiguity regarding the duties of a tenant to continue to pay rent while continuing to occupy the property. You should have received a "Notice of Tenant's Rights" form from the lender at the time of the Notice of Default. Pursuant to NRS 107.087, this form should expressly state that, between the date of the Notice of Default and the date of the sale, you may be evicted if you fail to pay rent or live up to your other obligations to the Landlord. If you fail to pay rent to the Landlord, the Landlord will have the right to evict you.
