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.

πŸ“œ 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.

βœ… 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.
