Biggest item is the effect of the newest OR rent control law passed by the Legislature.  Interest rates and strength of the rental market in Portland (especially for new construction) are the biggest threats/motivators.

I should have a 2013-2018 Portland Apartment Market History by mid-Mar 19.  If you’d like more information on 2012-2017 Portland Apartment Market history.  Is posted at:
