ORS § 90 § 90.545
Fixed term tenancy expiration; renewal or extension; new rental agreements; tenant refusal of new rental agreement; written storage agreement upon termination of tenancy.
Operative Text
(1) Except as provided under subsections (2) to (6) of this section, a fixed term tenancy for space for a manufactured dwelling or floating home, upon reaching its ending date, automatically renews as a month-to-month tenancy having the same terms and conditions, other than duration and rent increases under ORS 90.600, unless the tenancy is terminated under ORS 90.380 (5)(b), 90.394, 90.396, 90.398, 90.630 or 90.632. (2) To renew or extend a fixed term tenancy for another term, of any duration that is consistent with ORS 90.550, the landlord shall submit the proposed new rental agreement to the tenant at least 60 days prior to the ending date of the term. The landlord shall include with the proposed agreement a written statement that summarizes any new or revised terms, conditions, rules or regulations. (3) Notwithstanding ORS 90.610 (2), a landlord’s proposed new rental agreement may include new or revised terms, conditions, rules or regulations, if the new or revised terms, conditions, rules or regulations: (a)(A) Fairly implement a statute or ordinance adopted after the creation of the existing agreement; or (B) Are the same as those offered to new or prospective tenants in the facility at the time the proposed agreement is submitted to the tenant and for the six-month period preceding the submission of the proposed agreement or, if there have been no new or prospective tenants during the six-month period, are the same as are customary for the rental market; (b) Are consistent with the rights and remedies provided to tenants under this chapter, including the right to keep a pet pursuant to ORS 90.530 and limits on rent increases under ORS 90.600 (1); (c) Do not relate to the age, size, style, construction material or year of construction of the manufactured dwelling or floating home contrary to ORS 90.632 (2); and (d) Do not require an alteration of the manufactured dwelling or floating home or alteration or new construction of an accessory building or structure. (4) A tenant shall accept or reject a landlord’s proposed new rental agreement at least 30 days prior to the ending of the term by giving written notice to the landlord. (5) If a landlord fails to submit a proposed new rental agreement as provided by subsection (2) of this section, the tenancy renews as a month-to-month tenancy as provided by subsection (1) of this section. (6) If a tenant fails to accept or unreasonably rejects a landlord’s proposed new rental agreement as provided by subsection (4) of this section, the fixed term tenancy terminates on the ending date without further notice and the landlord may take possession by complying with ORS 105.100 to 105.168. (7) If a tenancy terminates under conditions described in subsection (6) of this section, and the tenant surrenders or delivers possession of the premises to the landlord prior to the filing of an action pursuant to ORS 105.110, the tenant has the right to enter into a written storage agreement with the landlord, with the tenant having the same rights and responsibilities as a lienholder under ORS 90.675 (20), except that the landlord may limit the term of the storage agreement to not exceed six months. Unless the parties agree otherwise, the storage agreement must commence upon the date of the termination of the tenancy. The rights under ORS 90.675 of any lienholder are delayed until the end of the tenant storage agreement.
ORS § 90.545 governs what happens when a fixed-term tenancy for a manufactured dwelling or floating home space reaches its end date. By default, the tenancy automatically converts to a month-to-month arrangement on the same terms unless either party takes specific steps. A landlord who wants to renew for another fixed term must propose a new agreement at least 60 days before expiration, and a tenant must accept or reject that proposal in writing at least 30 days before the end date. If a tenant unreasonably rejects or fails to respond to a valid proposal, the tenancy ends on the expiration date, though the tenant may still arrange a written storage agreement for the dwelling.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under ORS § 90.545, operators who wish to renew a fixed-term tenancy for another term generally submit a proposed rental agreement to the tenant at least 60 days before the current term ends, along with a written summary of any new or changed terms. Any revised terms must meet the statutory criteria—such as reflecting changes in law or matching terms offered to new tenants—and cannot impose dwelling alterations or discriminate based on the home's age or construction. Compliant operators keep records of the submission date and the summary document to demonstrate timely delivery.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
ORS § 90.545 gives tenants in manufactured dwelling or floating home spaces a default protection: if a landlord does not submit a proper renewal proposal at least 60 days before the term ends, the tenancy automatically continues as month-to-month on existing terms. Tenants who receive a proposed new agreement have until 30 days before the term ends to accept or reject it in writing; an unreasonable rejection can result in termination of the tenancy on the ending date. Tenants facing that outcome may still have the right to a written storage agreement, and consulting a tenant-rights organization familiar with ORS § 90.545 can help clarify available options.
