Nevada HOA Website Requirements: What NRS 116.31069 Means for Your Board
Quick answer: Yes, many Nevada HOAs are legally required to have a website. Under NRS 116.31069, a Nevada common-interest community with 150 or more units must maintain a secure website or electronic portal for its owners, and since January 1, 2023 that site must also let owners pay assessments electronically. Smaller associations are not required to have one, but most find that a website pays for itself in reduced records requests alone. (Updated August 2026. This page is practical guidance, not legal advice; the statute text is at leg.state.nv.us and your association attorney has the final word.)
What does NRS 116.31069 actually require?
Nevada is one of the few states that puts HOA websites directly into law. If your association has 150 or more units, NRS 116.31069 requires a secure internet website or electronic portal that owners in your community can access.
The site must make the association’s key documents available to owners, including the governing documents (CC&Rs, bylaws, rules and regulations), budgets, and notices and agendas of meetings. And since January 1, 2023, the website or portal must give owners a way to pay their assessments electronically.
Security matters here: this is owner information, so the statute calls for a secure site. A public brochure page with the CC&Rs uploaded to it does not satisfy an owner-portal requirement on its own.
My association has fewer than 150 units. Do we still need a website?
Not by law. But consider what the rest of NRS 116 requires of every Nevada association regardless of size: owners have broad rights to inspect books and records, boards must produce documents on request within statutory timeframes, and the Real Estate Division’s Commission can act against boards that drag their feet.
Every records request your manager handles by hand costs time and creates a compliance deadline. A website with the governing documents, budgets, meeting minutes, and forms posted permanently answers most requests before they are made. For a small association, that is the entire business case.
What should a Nevada HOA website include?
Based on the statute and on what Las Vegas valley associations actually get asked for, a complete HOA website includes:
- Governing documents: CC&Rs, bylaws, current rules and regulations, and architectural guidelines
- Current adopted budget and reserve study summary
- Meeting notices, agendas, and approved minutes
- Online assessment payment, or a clear link into your management company’s payment system
- Architectural review request forms and violation appeal forms owners can download or submit online
- Board and management contact information with response expectations
- Community news, trash and street-sweeping schedules, amenity hours and reservation info
- A secure owners-only area for anything not meant for the general public
Who is responsible for the HOA website: the board or the management company?
Legally, the association is responsible, which in practice means the board. Many management companies provide a portal as part of their contract, and for a large community that often satisfies the statute. The common gaps we see: self-managed associations with no portal at all, associations whose management portal is so poor that owners cannot find documents, and boards that changed management companies and lost their entire web presence in the transition because the old company owned it.
That last one is worth underlining: your association should own its own domain name and website, so that changing management companies never means starting over. If your community’s web presence lives entirely inside a manager’s system, ask what happens to it when the contract ends.
What does an HOA website cost in Las Vegas?
At Las Vegas Website Design, a complete association website typically runs $1,500 to $2,500 to build, plus hosting from $29.99 per month, depending on size and whether you need a secure owners area and online payments integration. That is usually less than one month of a mid-size association’s landscaping bill, and it is a common-expense line item boards can budget without special assessment.
We have built websites for Nevada businesses and organizations from our downtown Las Vegas office since 2005, we handle the technical side end to end (domain in the association’s name, secure hosting, backups, updates), and boards work directly with owner Matt McWilliam. See our pricing page for the full breakdown, and our managed hosting plans for what the monthly fee covers.
How fast can a compliant site be live?
Most association sites go live in 14 to 21 days once we have your documents. If your board is facing a records-request problem or a management transition, we can prioritize the document library first so the compliance-critical part is online in the first week.

Questions & answers
Frequently Asked Questions
Are HOA websites required by law in Nevada?
Yes, for larger communities. Under NRS 116.31069, a Nevada common-interest community with 150 or more units must maintain a secure website or electronic portal that gives owners access to the governing documents, budgets, and meeting notices, and since January 1, 2023 it must also allow owners to pay assessments electronically. Smaller associations are not required to have a website, though most adopt one to handle records requests efficiently.
What documents must be on a Nevada HOA website?
The core set is the governing documents (CC&Rs, bylaws, rules and regulations), the adopted budget, and meeting notices and agendas, plus an electronic way to pay assessments. Well-run associations also post approved minutes, reserve study summaries, architectural request forms, and community schedules, because every document posted is a records request the board never has to process.
