1.
Except as otherwise provided in or required to carry out the provisions of subsection 2 and NRS 361.4725 to 361.4729, inclusive, the owner of a single-family residence which is the primary residence of the owner is entitled to a partial abatement of the ad valorem taxes levied in a county on that property each fiscal year equal to the amount by which the product of the combined rate of all ad valorem taxes levied in that county on the property for that fiscal year and the amount of the assessed valuation of the property which is taxable in that county for that fiscal year, excluding any increase in the assessed valuation of the property from the immediately preceding fiscal year as a result of any improvement to or change in the actual or authorized use of the property, exceeds the sum obtained by adding:(a)
The amount of all the ad valorem taxes:(1)
Levied in that county on the property for the immediately preceding fiscal year; or(2)
Which would have been levied in that county on the property for the immediately preceding fiscal year if not for any exemptions from taxation that applied to the property for that prior fiscal year but do not apply to the property for the current fiscal year,(b)
Three percent of the amount determined pursuant to paragraph (a).2.
The provisions of subsection 1 do not apply to any property for which:(a)
No assessed valuation was separately established for the immediately preceding fiscal year; or(b)
The provisions of subsection 1 of NRS 361.4722 provide a greater abatement from taxation.3.
Except as otherwise required to carry out the provisions of NRS 361.4732 and any regulations adopted pursuant to NRS 361.4733, the amount of any reduction in the ad valorem taxes levied in a county for a fiscal year as a result of the application of the provisions of subsection 1 must be deducted from the amount of ad valorem taxes each taxing entity would otherwise be entitled to receive for that fiscal year in the same proportion as the rate of ad valorem taxes levied in the county on the property by or on behalf of that taxing entity for that fiscal year bears to the combined rate of all ad valorem taxes levied in the county on the property by or on behalf of all taxing entities for that fiscal year.4.
The Nevada Tax Commission shall adopt such regulations as it deems appropriate to carry out this section, including, without limitation, regulations providing a methodology for applying the partial abatement provided pursuant to subsection 1 to a parcel of real property of which only a portion qualifies as a single-family residence which is the primary residence of the owner and the remainder is used in another manner.5.
The owner of a single-family residence does not become ineligible for the partial abatement provided pursuant to subsection 1 as a result of:(a)
The operation of a home business out of a portion of that single-family residence; or(b)
The manner in which title is held by the owner if the owner occupies the residence, including, without limitation, if the owner has placed the title in a trust for purposes of estate planning.6.

“Primary residence of the owner” means a residence which:(1)
Is designated by the owner as the primary residence of the owner in this State, exclusive of any other residence of the owner in this State; and(2)
