Eviction Set Asides
A new Oregon law clears past residential evictions that meet certain requirements. It applies to cases where the court entered a judgment after Jan. 1, 2014. Visit the Oregon Judicial Department website to see if your evictions were included!

Update on Eugene's $10 Application fee cap
"The City will not enforce the $10 cap on applicant screening charges until the Oregon Supreme Court issues a decision on the plaintiffs’ appeal of the Court of Appeals’ decision filed on November 6, 2024. The City has not implemented the application fee cap and is currently not requiring landlords to limit application fees to $10"

HRSN can take 2 months or so, just fyi. And they will deny you if you are looking for eviction intervention since it's bit intended for that
