About This Program
The Grant Map catalogs Oregon Property Tax Deferral, Senior & Disabled in its Portland, OR research directory. The record carries audience tags for homeowners; those tags do not establish eligibility or current service coverage.
Oregon pays property taxes on behalf of qualifying senior (62+) or disabled homeowners, creating a lien repaid with 6% interest when the home is eventually sold, transferred, or refinanced. The 2026 household income limit is $70,000 and home real market value must be under $301,000 (or under 150% of county median for newer owners). Homeowner must have owned and lived in the home for 5 years.
Typical Portland property tax $4,000-$8,000/year deferred; frees cash for home repairs
