Oregon DAS sets 10% rent increase cap for 2027

SALEM – Yesterday, the Oregon Department of Administrative Services (DAS) published the annual maximum rent increases allowed by law for the 2027 calendar year. As of Monday, September 28, the new 2027 rent increase cap, per ORS 90.324(b) is 10%, a slight increase over the 9.5% permitted for 2026. 

The full press release from DAS on the decision is as follows:

(Press release from Oregon Department of Human Services)

The maximum allowable rent increase percentage in 2027 for tenancies subject to ORS 90.324(b) is 10%.

Per ORS 90.324, “no later than September 30th of each year, the Oregon Department of Administrative Services shall calculate the maximum annual rent increase percentage allowed for the following calendar year:

• For tenancies subject to ORS 90.600 (1) in facilities* with more than 30 spaces, as six percent.”
• “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).”

To view the methodology, calculation and Consumer Price Index data, refer to the Maximum Annual Rent Increase 2027 (Excel file).

The allowable rent increase percentage for calendar year 2026 was 9.5%.
