A: A No Cause termination is just that - a landlord does not have to specify (though they can if they wish) a defensible cause to terminate your tenancy. You can try to negotiate with him now, before more time elapses, but in the end, if he does not rescind the notice (in writing please) you are likely going to have to be out or face potential eviction assuming your rental dwelling is not within the city limits of either Portland or Milwaukie. Both of those cities now require 90 days advanced notice to terminate a tenancy, with Portland also requiring payment of "relocation assistance" by the landlord. Best of luck.
