The Oregon Department of Administrative Services has set the 2026 rent-control cap, called rent stabilization, at 9.5%, according to reports. It is the second-lowest allowed increase since Oregon began stabilizing rent.
A separate 6% cap applies to mobile-home facilities with more than 30 spaces because of a new state law.
Here is what the agency reported on its website.
- “For tenancies subject to ORS 90.600 (1) in facilities with more than 30 spaces, as 6%.” For 2026, the maximum allowable rent-increase percentage is 6%.
- “For tenancies subject to ORS 90.600 (1) in facilities with 30 or fewer spaces or for tenancy types subject to ORS 90.323, percentage is the lesser of:
- Ten percent; or
- Seven percent plus Consumer Price Index (CPI). For 2026, the maximum allowable rent increase percentage is 9.5%.
The allowable rent increase percentage for the previous year, 2025, was 10.0%.
OregonLive.com reported that the agency acknowledges that officials originally misinterpreted the new law when they published annual statewide rent-increase limits for 2026. The agency first reported landlords can raise rents by up to 9.5% in many residences next year, down from 10% this year.
Under Oregon’s rent-control law, the ceiling is the lesser of 7% plus inflation or 10%. It doesn’t apply to properties built in the past 15 years.
But the agency, citing the newly passed House Bill 3054, also reported that rentals with more than 30 spaces would only see a maximum rent increase of 6%. Then entered the correction.
“House Bill 3054, passed in 2025, changed how rent increases are calculated,” the agency stated. “Now, the size of the rental property affects the allowed increase.”
That bill only restricts annual yearly rent increases in manufactured home parks and marinas with more than 30 spaces to 6%. (Smaller parks and marinas are still subject to the 7% plus inflation or 10% rule.)
