24-Hour Notice of Entry - Here's Why It Matters

24-Hour Notice of Entry - Here's Why It Matters

🏡 Oregon Law Requires 24-Hour Notice of Entry — Here's Why It Matters

At Alpine Property Management, we prioritize compliance, professionalism, and respect for tenant rights. One key area where this matters is entry into a tenant-occupied property—including the yard.

📜 What the Law Says

Under Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) 90.322, landlords and their agents must provide at least 24 hours’ written notice before entering a rental unit. This includes entry for:

  • Appraisers
  • Insurance agents
  • Contractors
  • Yard maintenance
  • Any non-emergency reason

Even if the visit seems routine or harmless, unauthorized entry is a violation of Oregon law and can lead to legal consequences.

🤝 Why It’s Important

  • Protects tenant privacy
    Tenants have the right to quiet enjoyment of their home. Surprise visits can feel invasive and disrespectful.

  • Avoids legal risk
    Entry without notice can result in complaints, fines, or legal action.

  • Builds trust and professionalism
    Serving proper notice shows tenants and owners that we operate with integrity and care.

✅ Our Commitment

Alpine Property Management ensures that every entry—inside or outside—is preceded by a formal 24-hour notice. We handle this process so our owners stay compliant and our tenants feel respected.
