This information is not intended to be legal advice regarding your particular problem, and it is not intended to replace the work of an attorney.  \n\n| Does SB 608 apply to my tenancy?\u003Cbr>The provisions of SB 608 apply:\u003Cbr>1. To any fixed-term tenancy entered into or renewed after February 27, 2019;\u003Cbr>2. To the termination of any month-to-month tenancy; and\u003Cbr>3. To all rent increase notices. |\n| --- |\n| How do I send a termination notice to a tenant?\u003Cbr>SB 608 did not change how termination notices are issued. Any termination notice must be in writing (paper, notemail or text) and can be served by personal hand-to-hand delivery or first-class mail (add three additional days to any notice period if using first-class mail). Some rental agreements allow the use of “post and mail,” but only if certain necessary information is contained within the rental agreement and other conditions are met. |\n\nCan I terminate a month-to-month tenancy under SB 608?  \nIn most jurisdictions, a landlord can issue a written 30-day “no cause” eviction to month-to-month tenants during the first year of occupancy. In other jurisdictions, including Portland and Milwaukie, 90 days notice are required instead of 30 days.“First year of occupancy” means the first year of any tenant’s residency at a rental property with a month-to-month rental agreement.  \nAfter the first year of occupancy, a landlord with month-to-month tenants can issue a 90-day termination notice if the landlord has a “qualifying landlord reason.”(See below for a discussion of qualifying landlord reasons.) If a landlord has a qualifying landlord reason justifying a 90-day termination notice, the landlord must:  \n1. Issue a termination notice that states the reason for the termination and supporting facts allowing termination;  \n2. State the rental agreement will terminate on a specified date at least 90 days later; and  \n3. Pay the tenant one month’s rent when the written termination notice is issued, UNLESS the landlord has an ownership interest in four or fewer residential dwelling units in Oregon. Ownership interest includes being sole owner of a premises, a co-owner of a premises, or an owner of an LLC that owns real property.  \nA landlord can also issue a “no cause” termination notice after the first year of occupancy if the landlord’s primary residence is in the same building or on the same premises as the tenant, and the building or premises only has one or two dwelling units. This could occur if a tenant lives in an ADU on the premises. In most jurisdictions this is a 60-day notice; in others, including Portland and Milwaukie, a 90-day notice is required.  \nAdditionally, a landlord can issue a “no cause” termination notice after the first year of occupancy if:  \n1. The landlord’s primary residence is in the same building or on the same premises as the tenant;  \n2. The building or premises only has one or two dwelling units;  \n3. The landlord has accepted an offer to sell a dwelling unit separately from any other unit;  \n4. The buyer is a person who intends in good faith to occupy the unit as the buyer’s primary residence; and  \n5. Within 120 days after accepting the purchase offer, the landlord provides the tenant with written notice of termination with a specific termination date and written evidence of the offer to purchase the dwelling unit.  \nThe time period for this type of notice is 30 days in most jurisdictions; it is 90 days in Milwaukie and Portland.  \nFinally, a landlord can issue a written “for cause” termination notice at any time during the tenancy. Reasons for terminating a tenancy “for cause” include, but are not limited to: material breach of the rental agreement or ORS 90.325 (ORS 90.392), failure to pay rent (ORS 90.394) and outrageous conduct by a tenant (ORS 90.396) . Each of these “for cause” terminations has its own notice requirements.  \nCan I","cbCaigrxtJqTesqc","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaigrxtJqTesqc","pdf",150029,"English","# New Rules for Landlords\n## Applicability of SB 608\n## Termination notice requirements\n## Month-to-month termination under SB 608\n## Fixed-term tenancy termination under SB 608","[{\"question\":\"Does SB 608 apply to my tenancy?\",\"answer\":\"SB 608 applies to fixed-term tenancies entered into or renewed after February 27, 2019, to termination of month-to-month tenancies, and to all rent increase notices.\"},{\"question\":\"How must a landlord send a termination notice under SB 608?\",\"answer\":\"A termination notice must be in writing (paper, not email or text) and may be served by personal delivery or first-class mail, with additional days added to the notice period when mail is used.\"},{\"question\":\"What notice periods apply for terminating a month-to-month tenancy under SB 608?\",\"answer\":\"During the first year of occupancy, many jurisdictions allow a 30-day “no cause” notice, while Portland and Milwaukie require 90 days.
