After careful tenant screening and if the tenant(s) do qualify; we do an exterior inspection within the first 30 days and many more thereafter. (At any time an owner can ask for an exterior photo and we can drive by and get some photos upon request). The first interior inspection is within 90 to 100 days of move in. This will give the tenant(s) time to move in and get comfortable and if anything was out of the norm it would generally show within the first 3 months of occupancy of which we can send a non-compliance letter to the tenants in violation showing we mean business and a chance to remedy the violation. Depending on that first interior inspection we may do another within 3 month if we found any unusual behavior. If the first interior inspection was within our guidelines, the next would be the annual inspection. (Please call to discuss further).
(PRE-COVID) (WE WILL GO BACK TO THIS AFTER MORATORIUM) Generally rent is due on the 1st of the month; however Oregon allows a 4 day grace period of which a tenant can pay the rent by midnight on the 4th day. Obviously most Property Managers are not working at midnight so if the rent is not received and/or postmarked by the 5th of the month the tenant(s) are susceptible to our late fee of $75.00. If rent still is not received by the 8th of the month we send a 72 Hour Notice to Pay Rent or Quit. This is telling the tenant that they need to pay their rent within 72 hours or move (in this notice we must give the tenants a day/date/time of which they must either pay or move by). If still nothing is received or the tenant has not made an attempt to contact us, we will file a Summons and Complaint with Jackson County Courts and proceed with a Forcible Entry Detainer to obtain possession of the premises. (Please contact me for more detailed information).
No… it is fairly a simple process if the paperwork is completed correctly and if the tenant is in violation of their lease. We can evict “for cause” or simply “no cause”. Generally eviction for cause we do need to give the tenants a letter stating the violation and a chance to remedy the violation depending on what it is. If a tenant has lived in your home for over a year, we must give a 90 day no cause to obtain possession of the premises. Remember just because you own the home and if your tenant does not move out in the time requested, you must go to court to get the tenant out. It is illegal to change the locks, turn the utilities off and/or threaten your tenant to move.

No you do not have to allow pets unless the pet falls under the guidelines of Disability of which you cannot deny nor charge a pet deposit. The tenant must provide proof from a qualified physician that indeed the pet is a dog for disability purposes. If one sneaks in a pet you can give the tenant a 10 day notice to remove the pet and if they do not you can start “for cause” eviction. If you choose to allow a pet you should charge a pet deposit at minimum of $300 in addition to the security deposit. You should also require the tenant to carry renters insurance listing the landlord and management company as an additional insured.
In most areas of Jackson County it is a city ordinance that the landlord pays for garbage. Landlords should definitely pay for garbage because if a tenant does not want to spend the extra money and trash collects you could end up with rodent/bugs/nasty smells. I recommend landlords pay for sewer as the county cannot shut off sewer if the tenant does not pay and instead the county will put a lien on the property to collect the past due amount. If the landlord is paying for the sewer this would not occur as the bill should be current. Water and landscaping is up for further discussion as each case is different depending on the needs and attachment one has for their landscaping. Remember tenants don’t always landscape the way you would like to see it done.
