    What Oregon requires

    Notice before a rent increase

    Landlords may not raise rent in the first year of a tenancy and afterward must give at least 90 days' written notice, no more than once in any 12-month period (ORS 90.323(1)–(3)).

    No increase in the first year of tenancy; after that, at least 90 days' written notice stating the increase, new rent and effective date, at most once per 12 months. Week-to-week tenancies: 7 days' notice.

    ORS 90.323(1)–(3) · checked October 26, 2026

    Notice to end a month-to-month tenancy

    A landlord may end a month-to-month tenancy without cause on 30 days' written notice only in the first year of occupancy; after that, only for tenant cause or a qualifying landlord reason with 90 days' notice and (for landlords with 5+ units) one month's rent, while tenants may always give 30 days' notice (ORS 90.427(3), (5)–(6)).

    Landlord 30-day no-cause notice only during the first year of occupancy. After the first year: only for tenant cause, or 90 days' notice for a qualifying landlord reason (demolition/conversion, major repairs, landlord or immediate-family occupancy, sale to a buyer who will live there) stating the reason and paying one month's rent (payment not required if landlord owns 4 or fewer units); 60 days with an extra month's rent for a qualifying sale. Owner-occupied 2-unit property: 60-day no-cause after year one, or 30 days for an accepted sale to a buyer who will occupy (90.427(8)(a)). Week-to-week: 10 days.

    ORS 90.427(3)–(8) · checked October 26, 2026

    Rent control

    Oregon caps rent increases at 7% plus CPI or 10%, whichever is lower (9.5% in 2026), for buildings at least 15 years old, and bars local rent control (ORS 90.323(2)(d), (5); 90.324; 91.225).

    ORS 90.323(2)(d), (5)–(6), ORS 90.324(1)(b), ORS 91.225, OEA maximum annual rent increase (2026: 9.5%; 2027: 10%) · checked October 26, 2026

    Change coming (ORS 90.324 annual calculation (OEA, published Sept. 2026), effective January 1, 2027): Maximum allowable rent increase for calendar 2027 is 10% (the 10% ceiling applies). Source

    If the renewal raises the rent and Oregon's 90-day notice rule applies to your tenancy, a new term starting February 1, 2027 means the letter should reach the tenant by November 3, 2026. The example letter is dated November 2, 2026, which leaves that margin. Oregon's rule above sets different periods in some situations, so count from the one that fits your tenancy. Send the letter early enough that the tenant can also reply by your deadline.

    City and county rules can be stricter than state law, and your lease can require more than the statute does. Use whichever rule gives the tenant more time or protection.
