Oregon Month-to-Month Eviction
Eviction procedures for month-to-month rentals in Oregon differ from those for fixed-term leases. Landlords must provide a minimum of 30 days written notice to terminate the tenancy for any reason or 60 days if the tenant has lived in the rental for more than a year. If the eviction is for cause, such as nonpayment of rent or lease violations, the landlord may issue a 72-hour notice to cure the violation or vacate.
