How do 2026 rent caps affect short-term rentals in Eugene?

Short-term rentals under 30 days are exempt from Oregon's 9.5% rent increase cap applying to long-term leases. Investors can adjust nightly rates based on demand while paying Transient Room Tax. This supports higher yields amid controlled long-term supply.

What zoning rules apply to STRs in Eugene?

R-1 zones limit STRs to owner-occupied properties; R-2/R-3 allow more flexibility with permits. Caps on permits in some neighborhoods create scarcity boosting values. Safety inspections and insurance proof are mandatory for licensing.

Is short-term rental insurance required in Eugene?

Yes, at least $1M liability coverage per occurrence is required, as standard homeowner policies exclude STR activities. Proof must be submitted with annual registration renewals. Lapses lead to permit suspension.
