Yes I do have a dog in this fight. Here we go again with someone who doesn't own property trying to tell the landlord what needs to be done.  As the article says a no cause eviction is a easy and stay out of court way of getting rid of someone.  If you give them a evict for cause you might end up on court and lose 2-3 months of rent along with cleaning up a shit pile of garbage and destruction to your property.  Owning rentals is not a hobby but a business that you have.   Now I want you to stop and think about this.  In Portland and  Milwaukie you now have to give a 90 day no cause eviction but the tenant does not.  Is this fair?  What if your employer told you that you couldn't leave your job unless you gave hem a 90 day notice.  Rent stays at what the market will bear, you know supply and demand.  A lot of landlords in rent restricted areas are now selling their rentals houses and when this happens they now are no longer rentals thus shrinking the market.  Don't hate the landlords.
