Overview
The United States has over 1 million residents in rental housing, which is 35% of the total US population. In Oregon, over 11% of the state’s population is in apartment housing. TenantReports.com can help Oregon landlords with tenant screening to make the application and rental process faster and easier than ever.
Oregon tenant screening information uses records dating back to 1990. Several counties such as Lane County and Washington County have public arrest logs beginning in the early 2000s. Information obtained through screening cannot be used to alter a current rental agreement, unless the tenant is shown to have breached said agreement.
