New Portland rental application laws
Hi all! Any Portland, OR, landlords here? I normally use a property manager, but I have an ADU in my home that I manage personally, and it just went vacant. I need to rent it out again, and I haven't done so since all of the new application and screening laws hit Portland.
Now, you are required to wait 72 hours after posting before accepting an application, and there several disclosures required on the application. My question is who do you use for rental applications and screening in Portland? I want to just linked to an application company, but I don't know who is reliable that would provide the required disclosures that are unique to Portland. I don't know if I can just send the applicants a pdf, because I am apparently now required to link to the application online.
It's such a fiasco, and I would really rather not have to consult an attorney just to find a new tenant. Any advice? Thank you!
