While I don't live in Nevada and don't know their rules, I can't imagine any state that would allow a closing without the approval/signature of all owners on the title.
How is title held?
As an unmarried couple, I would predict that either party can sell their share only, but local rules rule. And, it is a legal question. Lawyer time for appropriate input.
Here in PA, if one party isn't willing to sell, the other party can get an attorney and they can either make them sell the house and split the money or the person that doesn't want to sell will have to buy out the other owner.
I live in Las Vegas NV and does it take both parties to sell a house when both parties names are on the title? They aren't married.
If the house is owned as Joint Tenants, each would own an equal, undivided interest in the property and both would need to sign a Deed relinquishing title.
If it is owned as Tenants in Common, each owner owns a proportional interest in the property and they can sell their interest separately. But...that would only transfer a proportional interest in the house, not full ownership.
There are oftentimes ways to force a sale when one party is unwilling.
