Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Oregon

Resident of Oregon. Manage a small motel in exchange for rent. The owner is going to abandon the property due to financial hardships. Mortgage is held by a 401k realty trust.We have over a dozen people here as long term tenants who are on SSD and SSI who really can't just get up and move. What are our options ?

What does "abandon" it mean? That it's being turned over to the mortgage company? If so, you will need to work with the mortgage company or its attorney to see what you can work out. But as the new owners, there's nothing to keep them from setting up their own management structure and evicting and replacing tenants after giving proper notices. Sorry, but best of luck!
