Frequently asked questions

How much notice is required to raise rent in Oregon?

At least 90 days' advance written notice. Statewide rent increase cap applies (7% + CPI, with a maximum); increases are banned in the first year of tenancy.

Is there a limit on how much I can raise the rent in Oregon?

Most states have no statewide rent cap, but a few (like California, Oregon, and Washington) do, and some cities have local rent control. Verify before setting the new amount. An increase can never take effect mid-lease unless the lease allows it.

Can a tenant reject a rent increase?

A tenant who doesn't want to pay the new rent can end the tenancy with proper notice. If they stay past the effective date after valid notice, they generally owe the new amount.
