I am currently in a situation with lodgers in my house. One has told me he has a job and still has not paid a single penny for over two months. He now enters the doors, walks upstairs very fast, gets into his door without giving me any time to have a talk. I have offered to waive the past two months of payments plus his share of unpaid utilities in exchange for a written document stating he will leave the premise peacefully. He said no to that. Correct me if I am wrong, but this new eviction moratorium states that I can only evict for reasons other than non-payment. Regardless if I as the owner live in the premise in a different room or not? I know cash for keys is one option. Once I am able to be done with this I plan on leaving Portland, maybe all of Oregon, for good.
