Explanation
ORS 90.300 requires Oregon landlords to return the security deposit (or provide an itemized written accounting of deductions) within 31 days of the tenant vacating and surrendering the keys. Failure to comply within 31 days may result in the landlord being unable to retain any deductions and potentially being liable for twice the wrongfully withheld amount.
