Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions from park and marina residents. Open any one to read the full answer, or browse the whole library on Get Answers.
-
If I complain about a safety issue, can my landlord retaliate against me?
Oregon law prohibits landlords from retaliating — through rent increases, reduced services, or termination notices — against a tenant who complains in good faith, seeks mediation, joins a tenant association, or testifies against the landlord.

My landlord refuses to take care of the trees on my property — is that their job?
Responsibility for tree maintenance depends on whether the tree is a hazard: landlords are responsible for hazard trees specifically, while routine tree care on a resident's own space typically falls to the resident.
Read the answer -
Can the landlord require an interior inspection of my home before I’m allowed to sell it?
Multiple members reported landlords requiring interior inspections and aesthetic upgrades before allowing a sale, sometimes at the resident's expense. This is a high-frequency, high-emotion topic in the survey data and should be verified against current statute language before publishing guidance.

If I am evicted, can I still sell my home? (90.675)
Read the answer -
How much can the park raise rent for a new buyer when I sell?
Rent increase limits generally apply per space regardless of who lives there, but many members report large resets when a home resells — this is a frequent source of confusion and worth a dedicated FAQ.

Received a 90-day notice of rent increases of 14.5%, is this legal?
Oregon caps rent increases once per year, and the maximum percentage is recalculated annually (it was 14.5% in some past years and near 10% for 2025). A park cannot raise a household's rent more than the current statutory cap or more than once a year.
