Hundreds of Portland rental units remain unregistered

Photo / Kevin Steeves Portland city officials say that despite facing prosecution and a $100 per day fine, approximately 700 rental units in the city remain unregistered with the city.

Some 700 rental units in Portland have yet to be registered, despite city officials’ push since Jan. 1 of last year for owners to register their properties or face a steep fine.

Those landlords now have until Oct. 21 to register their properties or they will be prosecuted and fined $100 per day until the registration is completed, CBS 13 reported.

Over 4,500 landlords representing about 18,000 units have already registered their properties and paid a fee that the city will use to fund its new housing safety office, which performs code and building inspections.
