Oregon Commercial Eviction Process

Commercial evictions in Oregon proceed through the Forcible Entry and Detainer (FED) court process under ORS 105.115. While the process can be faster than residential evictions, self-help measures are strictly prohibited.

Oregon Residential Eviction Steps in oregon

1

Serve Legal Notice

Deliver 72-hour or 144-hour notice for non-payment, or 30-day notice for cause.

2

File FED Action

If the tenant doesn’t vacate, the landlord files a Forcible Entry and Detainer in circuit court.

3

First Appearance

The parties meet in court (usually within 7-15 days) to attempt a settlement.

4

Trial & Judgment

If no settlement, a trial is held. If the landlord wins, the court issues a judgment of possession.

An Oregon commercial landlord cannot change the locks, remove a tenant's trade fixtures or inventory, or shut off utilities without a court order. Self-help eviction exposes the landlord to significant tort liability.

Notice Requirements

Non-Payment of Rent

Under Oregon law, a commercial tenancy can be terminated if the tenant fails to pay rent within 10 days of its due date, unless the lease specifies a different cure period. The landlord must provide written notice of the default.

Other Lease Breaches

For non-monetary breaches, the landlord must provide the notice required by the lease. If the lease is silent, reasonable notice is required.

The FED Court Process

StepAction
1. Serve Written NoticeDeliver the appropriate default notice to the tenant.

5. JudgmentThe court issues a judgment for possession and may award a money judgment.
6. Writ of ExecutionIf the tenant refuses to leave, the sheriff enforces the writ.

Timeline

  • Uncontested cases: 10-15 days from filing.
  • Contested cases: 30-45 days, depending on court scheduling.

Best Practices

  • Follow the Lease's Notice Provisions Exactly: If your lease says certified mail, use certified mail.
  • Engage Experienced Litigation Counsel: Oregon's FED process has procedural nuances that can trip up unfamiliar landlords.
  • Maintain Impeccable Financial Records: Your payment ledger is your primary evidence.
