Oregon was the first state with statewide rent control (SB 608, 2019). The annual cap is 7% plus the West-region CPI, and since 2023 (SB 1062) never more than 10%. The Oregon Department of Administrative Services publishes the exact percentage for the following calendar year each September. Buildings whose first certificate of occupancy was issued within the last 15 years are exempt.
The percentage is the 12-month average change in the West-region CPI, published by Oregon DAS in September for the next calendar year. This is information, not legal advice.
Yes — the cap applies to increases during a tenancy; a landlord can set a new rent for a new tenant, unless the previous tenant was evicted without cause.
