Know your Oregon rules
State law — not the lease — controls things like the maximum security deposit, how fast it must be returned, how much notice is required to enter or to end a month-to-month tenancy, and required disclosures. Check the current Oregon landlord-tenant rules so your lease lines up with them.
Frequently asked questions
Is this lease valid in Oregon?
A written lease that clearly identifies the parties, the property, the term, and the rent is generally enforceable in Oregon when both sides sign. This template covers those essentials. Oregon, like every state, has landlord-tenant rules (on deposits, entry, and notice) that override anything conflicting in a lease — so review your state’s rules and, for complex situations, have an attorney check it.
How much security deposit can a landlord charge in Oregon?
Oregon does not set a statutory cap on the security deposit, so the amount is negotiable — but it must be returned within 31 days after you move out (as of 2026). Source: Or. Rev. Stat. §90.300.
Do I need to notarize a lease in Oregon?
Most residential leases do not need to be notarized to be valid. Signatures from the landlord and each tenant are what matter. Longer leases (often over one year) can have extra formality requirements in some states — check Oregon’s rules if your term is long.
