About Move2Oregon.com
Independent research, real estate data, and tax breakdowns created to help families, professionals, and investors transition smoothly to the Pacific Northwest.
Our Purpose & Story
Move2Oregon.com was created to bridge the gap between thin, generic real estate listing sites and complex government tax or land-use legal portals.
Relocating to Oregon involves navigating specific state features: 0% sales tax paired with progressive state income tax, voter-approved property tax caps (Measure 53), 53-year-old Urban Growth Boundaries (UGBs), and unique regional microclimates.
Our editorial team synthesizes primary government databases, county assessor records, and local market trends into clear, actionable guides and downloadable tools.
