Oregon Cottage Clusters

[Stephen Shigematsu]

Hi All,

My wife and I will be moving to Oregon soon and are looking into starting a type of Airbnb. I read in the Oregon legislature, 

“Cottage Clusters. A “cottage cluster” is a group of four or more detached housing units not larger than 900 square feet that share a common courtyard.26 By June 30, 2021, the Portland Metropolitan area and cities with a population greater than 25,000 must allow cottage clusters on land zoned for residential use within the urban growth boundary.” 

So if I understand this correctly, as long as I’m within the urban growth boundary in a city with more than 25,000 people, I can use a residential-zoned lot to build 4 or more detached housing units as long as they’re less than 900 sq ft and share a common courtyard?

does anyone know anything that I’m missing that would prevent me from turning this sort of setup into an Airbnb? 

Thanks I’m advance for the input!
