Do you have questions about a notice of rent increase that you got from your landlord? This handbook has information about the laws that landlords have to follow when raising the rent. If your landlord doesn’t follow the law, you may be able to delay or avoid having your rent go up.  \nThese rules apply to all kinds of tenancies in Oregon, including tenancies for manufactured homes, RVs, or floating homes.  \nIt is very important that you document and keep records of your communications with your landlord. If you have a problem with your housing, it’s better not to call or speak to the landlord in person. Instead, write it down!  \nThis packet contains the following information:  \n• Rent Increases for Different Types of Tenancies  \n• Rent Increase Notices  \n• Maximum Rent Increase Amount  \n• Consequences for Violating Maximum Rent Increase Amount  \n• City of Portland Relocation Assistance Payments  \n• List of attorneys who represent renters  \nRent increases for different types of tenancies  \nThere are three main kinds of tenancies in Oregon: fixed term, month to month, and week to week. If you don’t have a written rental agreement that says what kind of tenancy you have, you automatically have a month to month tenancy.  \nFixed term tenancies  \n• One type of tenancy is a fixed-term tenancy (also known as a lease) . This type of tenancy continues for a specific amount of time. For example, a one-year lease is a common type of fixed-term tenancy. Generally, the landlord isn’t allowed to raise the rent until the end of the lease.  \no An important exception, though, is for some kinds of subsidized or public housing. For these kinds of housing, your landlord can increase the amount of rent that you pay in the middle of a lease if your income changes.  \n• Once the fixed term ends, one of three things can happen:  \no the lease can be renewed for another term;  \no you can move out; or  \no if neither of those two happen, then the lease becomes a month-to-month tenancy with the same rent amount.  \n• Unless you live in subsidized housing where the rent is based on your income, the landlord can only raise the rent at the end of your lease, or if the rental agreement has become a month-tomonth tenancy. Ay time the landlord raises the rent, they must give you at least 90 days’written notice before the date that your rent goes up (unless you have a week-to-week tenancy) .  \nMonth to month tenancies  \n• Month-to-month rental agreements are the most common type of tenancy in Oregon. Instead of having a fixed term or length of time, the rental agreement automatically renews every month until either the renter or the landlord decides to end the tenancy.  \no After the first year of a month to month tenancy, a landlord isn’t allowed to end the tenancy without giving a reason.  \no A renter can end the tenancy at any time by giving 30 days’ written notice. The renter doesn’t have to give a reason, no matter how long the renter has lived there.  \n• In a month-to-month tenancy, the landlord isn’t allowed to raise the rent during the first year.  \nAfter the first year of tenancy, the landlord can raise the rent at any time—but the landlord has to give a written notice at least 90 days before the rent goes up, the landlord can only raise the rent once a year, and there’s a limit on how much the landlord can raise the rent in any given year.  \n• There are other requirements for rent increases that we’ll talk about more in the next section.  \nWeek to week tenancies  \n• The other type of tenancy is a week-to-week tenancy. Week-to-week tenancies are less common and must meet specific requirements.  \no ","cbCaicmNivsGdo9X","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicmNivsGdo9X","pdf",189895,6,"English","# Rent Increases for Different Types of Tenancies\n## Fixed term tenancies\n## Month to month tenancies\n## Week to week tenancies\n# What kind of notice does my landlord have to give before raising the rent?\n## Written notice requirements\n## Legal methods for delivering notice","[{\"question\":\"What are the main types of tenancies in Oregon covered by this handbook?\",\"answer\":\"The handbook explains fixed term, month to month, and week to week tenancies.
