Owning and Managing Rental Property
|
|
Taking time to attend meetings
could be one of your best investment strategies. Even if you don't
attend meetings, you will benefit from the sources of information,
newsletter, rental forms, Oregon landlord-tenant law book, credit
reporting, etc.and your dues will help support our industry. ROA
offers you the chance to talk with other Rental Owners to discuss
your concerns and share experiences. We have an attorney on retainer to represent our members and your 1st hour is free (!!) and any
additional time needed is at a reduced rate. We also have a website where you can easily advertise your rentals for very little
cost.
|
We provide standard forms consistent
with current laws for quality management of rental housing and
for the protection of both residents and property owners. We provide
an effective state legislative program that works to up date and
improve the Oregon Landlord Tenant Law at every legislative session.
We have professional lobbyists who represent rental property owners
in the Oregon Legislature.

Being a member of the Rental Owners Association
can help you successfully run your rental business. It is a
business with major impact on your income and net worth. Managing your
rentals deserves serious attention and responsible treatment. It can
make you money or it can lose you money. We can
help you have a positive experience ... one of greater stability and
growth.
|
While we cannot perform miracles,
we can help you learn important lessons in better management
techniques. That knowledge and the tools we make available to you
(forms, legal and proper contracts and on-going education, web site for listing your rentals) will
make a difference. One owner alone has virtually no power, but
many owners joined together and working with our state association
(Oregon Rental Housing association, Inc.), their professional state
lobbyist and their active legislative committee do make a difference.
We provide that chance for unity.
