Plain English

Under Oregon law (ORS § 90.550), when a landlord and tenant enter into a rental agreement for a manufactured dwelling or floating home space, the agreement must take one of two forms: a month-to-month tenancy or a fixed-term tenancy. If the parties choose a fixed-term arrangement, the term must last at least two years — shorter fixed terms are not permitted under this provision.

For Property Managers

ORS § 90.550 limits the types of rental agreements available for manufactured dwelling or floating home spaces to month-to-month or fixed-term arrangements. Operators who offer fixed-term agreements generally ensure those agreements are drafted for a minimum duration of two years, as any shorter fixed term would not conform to the statute. Maintaining compliant lease forms for these spaces is a standard part of property management practice under Oregon's manufactured dwelling and floating home tenancy rules.

For Tenants

ORS § 90.550 establishes that tenants renting a space for a manufactured dwelling or floating home are entitled to a rental agreement that is either month-to-month or fixed-term, and that any fixed-term agreement must run for at least two years. If a tenant believes their agreement does not conform to these requirements — for example, if a fixed term shorter than two years was offered — they may have grounds to raise that issue as a concern under Oregon landlord-tenant law. Tenants in this situation can explore their options by contacting a local tenant-rights organization or Oregon's legal aid services for general information about how this provision applies.
