Q: What was the allowed rent increase for homes within the city of Portland, Oregon for 2023?..
Ive been told it was 14% and then went down to 10% about July of that year statewide.. however, the city of Portland had its own guidelines which made it 10%.. im within the city of Portland and mine was raised 14%..
A: Actually, Portland uses 10% not as a rent cap but rather if more than 10% rent increase, a tenant could refuse, move out and force the landlord to pay relocation assistance. It also required the landlord to include a variety of notices of tenants rights with the rent raising notice.
