What paperwork do buyers want when I sell commercial real estate in Albany, OR?
Buyers check each lease against Oregon's 10% cap for 2027 and the 90-day notice rule in ORS 90.323. They also review deposit files, because ORS 90.300 sets a 31-day accounting deadline. Keep every increase notice and move-out accounting on file.
