Oregon rent increase rules

90 days rent-increase notice.

Oregon caps most annual rent increases at 7% plus CPI (recalculated yearly), with a 90-day written notice requirement. No increase is allowed during the first year of a tenancy.

What this means for you: Oregon's statewide cap is one of the strongest in the nation, though buildings less than 15 years old are exempt.

Your next step: Verify the 90-day notice and that the percentage fits the current-year cap. Check whether your building's age exempts it.
