About this Event
Join the Westside Investors Network for an evening of expert insight, happy hour, and real conversations that could protect your next deal.
Oregon landlord-tenant law is unforgiving - and most eviction cases are not lost in court. They are lost in the first 30 days, before a case is ever filed. Seemingly small missteps during this early period can trigger tenant defenses, force dismissals, delay possession for months, and expose landlords and sellers to unexpected financial liability.
In this one-hour Oregon-specific session, landlord-side attorney Robert Phed walks investors, realtors, and property managers through the most common early mistakes that derail otherwise winnable eviction cases - drawing from real-world examples, not theory.
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:
- Why most evictions are lost before anything is ever filed
- The most common and expensive early mistakes landlords make
- How notice choice, service, and rent acceptance affect outcomes
- Portland-specific rules and local law overlays that catch even experienced investors off guard
- When to pause, when to escalate, and how early legal guidance protects your clients and your deals
- Realtor-specific risk points - including well-intended advice that can unintentionally create liability
WHO THIS IS FOR:
- Investors and landlords who own or manage tenant-occupied properties
- Realtors and brokers working with landlord clients or tenant-occupied property sales
- Property managers involved in turnover or enforcement decisions
ABOUT THE SPEAKER:
Robert Phed - Principal at Phed Law
