Who this covers — and who it does not

This page covers the landlord's duty to maintain a habitable home in Oregon, and what you can do when repairs go unmade.

It does not cover commercial leases, or conditions you caused yourself (which are treated differently).

The landlord's duty

Or. Rev. Stat. § 90.320 — 房东须在租约全程保持 dwelling unit habitable：防水/管道/供水（冷热水）/供暖/电气/清洁无虫鼠/垃圾/地板楼梯/通风空调/火灾安全（烟雾+一氧化碳报警器）/锁钥/2024 后新建制冷。

俄勒冈适居性标准是详尽清单式立法。房东与租客可书面约定租客承担特定维修（须善意、非规避、不损害其他租客，90.320(2)）。

Where the official text and a secondary summary disagree, this page follows the official text and says so. Where a provision admits of more than one reading, that is flagged rather than smoothed over.

When you need a lawyer instead of a tool

A self-help guide is the right starting point for understanding your position. Get legal help if:

• You have received an eviction notice — the timeline is now court-driven
• The dispute involves discrimination, unsafe conditions or retaliation
• Your landlord has filed anything in court already
• You are unsure whether a local ordinance changes the state rule

Local legal aid organisations and tenant unions offer free help for qualifying cases. They are independent of this site — we list them because they are the right place to go, not because they link here.
