Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

4 provisions identified: 3 benefits, 0 costs, 1 mixed.

Yearly rent caps protect facility residents

For covered manufactured home and floating home space rentals, facilities with more than 30 spaces have a 6% annual rent cap. Facilities with 30 or fewer spaces use the lower of 10% or 7% plus inflation. That formula also applies to rentals covered by Oregon’s general rent-limit law. Inflation means the September annual 12-month average change in the West Region Consumer Price Index. Oregon publishes the next year’s limits by September 30 and keeps past and current limits public. Covered month-to-month increases require 90 days’ written notice and are limited to once every 12 months. Notices must show the increase, new rent, start date, and facts supporting any exemption. Exemptions cover qualifying dwellings first approved for occupancy within 15 years and certain regulated affordable housing increases. For affordable housing, increases must leave the tenant’s share unchanged or result from program eligibility or income changes. Landlords who impose unlawful increases owe three months’ rent plus actual damages.

Tenant votes allow higher project rents

Facilities with more than 30 spaces can raise rent up to 12% for a major infrastructure project. This replaces, rather than adds to, another increase in the same 12 months. At least five years must pass between increases under this exception. Written yes votes must identify each voter’s space and represent tenants occupying at least 51% of facility spaces. Tenants must receive project details, documented costs, a timeline, and the estimated rent increase at least 30 days before voting. The landlord must meet with tenants at least 14 days before collecting votes. If substantial completion is over 12 months late, the landlord must refund all amounts collected above the usual rent cap.

Fewer landlord demands during home sales

The law limits landlord demands when tenants sell manufactured homes or floating homes in facilities. Listed condition requirements still cover repairs and maintenance, but no longer expressly include improvements or cosmetic upgrades. Landlords cannot require sellers or buyers to consent to an interior inspection or obtain one from a third party. They also cannot require an inspection to accept a sale notice, approve a sale, or approve the buyer’s tenancy.

Renewal terms must protect tenant rights

New terms for renewing manufactured home or floating home space rentals must respect tenant rights, including rent limits and pet rights. Landlords must deliver proposed agreements and a written summary of changes at least 60 days before the fixed term ends. Tenants must accept or reject the proposal at least 30 days before that date. Without a timely landlord proposal, the rental continues month to month, subject to lawful termination rules.
