I received an answer back from the bank that said due to ORS18.619 this account was not subject to garnishment... WHAT DOES THIS MEAN. Why is it not subject to Garnishment?
Had to remove everything from room. Residents cannot be left unattended. Must empty buckets constantly. So doesn’t go to lower level. He won’t reduce rent. He actually raised my rent wife and I have been sick more . We has a mold guy here we have mold.

It sounds as if you may have claims for reduced rent value, possibly mold damages as well. If desired, with written notice to the landlord, you may have rights to move to alternative housing at the landlord's expense above your rent. Consider reviewing everything with a landlord-tenant attorney.

It means that some sort of Judgement was entered by the court in a case in which you are listed as a party. If you want to know more, you need to either access the court computerized records or talk with a clerk at the court where it was entered.

Not accept any rent for time after termination notice expiration date and file to evict in court.
He said it was because my name comes up under address he owns and if I don't give it to him his insurance is going to charge him fir an extra policy if I don't have car insurance
I was initially the manager here until apt.'s 1st sold, under second owner since then. Have raised rent regularly also. With recent one just received today.

There's not enough information to say. The lease has to have some specific information and adequate notice provided. Plus Oregon's rent cap still applies. Consider reviewing everything with a local landlord-tenant attorney if you want to know for sure.
My roommate was recently evicted from his apartment, he was the only person on the lease and the landlord was aware of my presence within the unit and never said anything about it. After my roommate was evicted and had vacated the property, I returned to the apartment complex to visit a different... Read more »

If you occupied the property, the landlord should have evicted you as well as his tenant. Normally that is done by including "And All Others" or something similar as a defendant. Otherwise, they could end up evicting the named tenant but not anyone else occupying the dwelling. If you... Read more »
She has also tried breaking into my room in the middle of the night when I was sleeping high. Has stolen belongings, and let out a service animal!
answered on Feb 13, 2023
It is unclear what you mean by she was "evicted" - a landlord can terminate a tenancy but only a Court can actually evict. IF a court has restored possession to the landlord, and she still won't leave, then the landlord simply needs to follow up and get a Sheriff to remove her. If... Read more »
I live in an apartment complex. I am looking to file a claim at the Small Claims Court against my landlord/property manager for failing to stop my neighbor's dog from barking after more than 4 months. The dog barks almost daily and over 90% of the time it barks from over 10 minutes to as long... Read more »

You don't say but I am guessing that your neighbor is also a tenant of the same landlord? If so, if you have set it up properly, you can sue the landlord for breaching their duty to provide you with quiet enjoyment of your tenancy. You can also, and should, report the noise problem to...

You will need to serve the tenant with the proper 144 hr or 72 hr notice and, if not timely paid, file to evict in court. While I offer some partial eviction services on a flat fee basis, I don't know any attorney who offers a flat fee for an eviction start to finish. That is because there... Read more »
I have reported this to my landlord, property manager and leasing staff via email and in person more than 30 times since September 18, 2022, the day my neighbor moved in. But over 4 months later now very little has changed. My property manager kept asking me to present 3rd party confirmation but... Read more »

First, if you are in Multnomah County and the dog either barks for more than 10 minutes straight or intermittently for more than 30 minutes, gather your proof (record it?) and file a complaint with Multnomah County Animal Control. The process can take some pursuit but they do try to enforce the... Read more »

I am not seeing much of a question here so it is difficult to know how to respond. IF your question is can the landlord and now ex-tenant talk about you between themselves, the answer is of course - you have no right to control who someone talks to or what they talk about. If you believe they are... Read more »

The maximum rent increase in Oregon for 2023 is 14.6% over any 12 month rolling period. However, there are a small number of exceptions to the rent cap such as there being less than 15 years since the building got its first occupancy license or if it is part of a state or federal low income...

Asking the same question multiple times doesn't change the answer. The rental assistance protections you likely are thinking of was a COVID emergency program that expired last September and is no longer in effect.

It is all in the timing. If you did not pay the rent owed in full by the end of the 72 hrs. specified in the notice, your landlord can evict. Period. He is not required to wait for some third party to pay the rent, whenever they get around to it.
I'm a domestic violence victim from the house I moved into with the person the perpetrated that assaults me so the land was supposed to come meet with me and do a lease he never came I had an extra key cuz I got locks change from types of change and landlord never came he told me every day for...

You seem to be missing the recognition that rent has a due date. If not timely paid, the landlord can throw you out. IF the landlord is willing to wait for the possibility of a third party payment, fine. But you can not force him to and if you have not paid, in full, by the deadline in your 144 hr... Read more »
When I apply to rent new place court notes appear. I owe previous landlord 7,000
answered on Jan 6, 2023
As long as it is truthful. This is precisely the kind of information new potential landlords want and need to know. Why would a new landlord want to rent to someone that just stiffed their last landlord? It is always difficult to rent a new place after being evicted from a previous place.
answered on Jan 6, 2023
I am unclear as to your current status. IF you are actually out, you need to go to the first court appearance and tell the Judge. As long as you are out by the time of your appearance, the case should be dismissed and there will be no eviction on your rental record. Just so you know, you have not... Read more »
