In Oregon, providing access to basic sanitation facilities like a bathroom is a requirement. If you're offering access to the house for shower and bathroom use, it should be acceptable.
- Ensure safe and convenient access at all times.
- Check local ordinances for specifics.
Ok. So as long as we have been given a key to acsess basic needs such as the bathroom then they legally would need to give us a eviction notice correct?
Yes, ****. In Oregon, landlords must give proper eviction notice. If you're lawfully residing in the property, even without a formal lease, they cannot forcibly remove you without this notice.
