Portland FAQ

What counts as a 'substantiated' violation?

A complaint Bureau of Development Services confirms through inspection, police report, neighbor evidence, or platform booking records. Anonymous unverified complaints alone usually do not trigger strike status.

Can a revoked host transfer the permit to a relative?

No. Portland short-term rental permits are tied to the operator and the property. Transfers to family members at the same address that share the operating arrangement are treated as continuations of the prior operator.
