Question:  A contractor has been buying homes in the community, placing them on Storage Agreement and flipping after improvements.  Can a park owner deny a contractor a storage agreement based on a previous bad track-record in the community - shoddy improvements, bad dealings with new purchasers etc.  Are there any grounds to deny a contractor a storage agreement?  Can the park owner increase the storage fee during the contract and if so with how much notice?  If the property is not being maintained, how does the park owner terminate the storage agreement?

Four additional questions and answers regarding Oregon's new rent control law.

1. Question:  I am using MHCO leases that I will renew in three years.  The leases provides for a rent increase each year of the lease of 4.5%.  Going forward, can I now increase rent 6% each year that is left of the lease or do I have to stick with the 4.5%?  

2. Question: We have storage agreements that we are planning to raise the storage fees.  Are we limited to 6% increase on storage fees?

3. Question: If I send an increase notice next month that is effective January 1, 2026, can we increase the rent 10% since the notice was sent prior to September 1, 2025?  As long as the notice is sent out by September 1, 2025 is there a limit to how far out that the rent increase is effective?

4.   Question: .  It appears that the new laws apply to RV parks, as the RV Space Rental Agreement includes the rent control parameters.  Correct?
