Relating to evictions of squatters.

Maddy summaryHB 3522 allows property owners or landlords in Oregon to evict individuals occupying property without permission (squatters) by providing 24 hours' written notice specifying the vacate date and stating the reason is the occupant's status as a squatter. The bill amends Oregon eviction laws to explicitly include "squatter" as a valid reason for eviction under ORS 105.115, requiring this notice before seeking court action. It directly affects property owners/landlords seeking to remove unauthorized occupants and squatters themselves. The law takes effect January 1, 2026, after passing the Oregon legislature in June 2025.
