The Nevada Affidavit of Authority must include nine critical pieces of information per NRS 107.0805 to establish the lender's or trustee's authority to conduct foreclosure. Missing or inaccurate information can invalidate the entire foreclosure proceeding.
Required Information & Declarations:
📋 Mandatory Fields:
- Full name and business address of the current trustee, note holder, and beneficiary
- Statement that the beneficiary or trustee has actual or constructive possession of the original promissory note
- Confirmation of the trustee's authority to exercise the power of sale under the deed of trust
- The principal balance owed on the loan
- Estimated fees and costs of foreclosure proceedings
- Complete legal description of the property subject to foreclosure
- Name and last known address of the borrower(s)
- Certification that proper notice requirements have been met under Nevada law
- The affiant's personal knowledge and verification under penalty of perjury
Notarization Requirement:
The Affidavit must be signed before a Nevada-commissioned notary public who verifies the signer's identity, witnesses the signature, and completes the notarial certificate. The notary seal and signature with notarization date must be clearly visible and compliant with Nevada recording standards.
✅ Best Practice:
Foreclosure trustees should have all information verified and accurate before scheduling notarization. Foreclosure document notarization at Echo Bay and Las Vegas business districts includes verification of proper execution and compliance with Nevada requirements.
