Neb. Rev. Stat. § 76-1401 et seq. § 76-1417
Disclosure.
Operative Text
(1) The landlord or any person authorized to enter into a rental agreement on his or her behalf shall disclose to the tenant in writing at or before the commencement of the tenancy the name and address of: (a) The person authorized to manage the premises; and (b) An owner of the premises or a person authorized to act for and on behalf of the owner for the purpose of service of process and for the purpose of receiving and receipting for notices and demands. (2) The information required to be furnished by this section shall be kept current and this section extends to and is enforceable against any successor landlord, owner, or manager. (3) A person who fails to comply with subsection (1) of this section becomes an agent of each person who is a landlord for the purpose of: (a) Service of process and receiving and receipting for notices and demands; and (b) Performing the obligations of the landlord under the Uniform Residential Landlord and Tenant Act and under the rental agreement and expending or making available for the purpose all rent collected from the premises.
Under Neb. Rev. Stat. § 76-1401 et seq. § 76-1417, Nebraska law requires that tenants receive written disclosure — at or before the start of a tenancy — identifying the property manager and an owner or authorized agent who can accept legal notices and service of process. This information must be kept up to date and applies to any successor landlord, owner, or manager who later takes over the property. If the required disclosure is not made, the person who failed to comply automatically becomes the landlord's agent for legal service, notice receipt, and fulfillment of landlord obligations under the Uniform Residential Landlord and Tenant Act.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Compliant operators under Neb. Rev. Stat. § 76-1401 et seq. § 76-1417 provide tenants with a written disclosure before or at lease signing that names the property manager and identifies an owner or authorized representative available for service of process and official notices. Operators also keep this information current throughout the tenancy and ensure that any new owner or manager is similarly bound by the same disclosure obligations. Failing to provide this disclosure carries a significant consequence: the non-disclosing party may be treated as the landlord's agent, potentially becoming personally responsible for landlord duties and liable for rent collected on the premises.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Neb. Rev. Stat. § 76-1401 et seq. § 76-1417 gives tenants the right to receive written notice — before or when the tenancy begins — identifying who manages the property and who can be served with legal process or official demands on the owner's behalf. If a landlord or their representative does not provide this disclosure, that person may be treated as the landlord's agent, which can affect how tenants serve legal notices or assert rights under the Uniform Residential Landlord and Tenant Act. Tenants who believe this disclosure was not made may consider raising it as a relevant factor in any dispute, consulting a tenant-rights organization in Nebraska, or seeking guidance on how the provision applies to their circumstances.
