Good news, Minnesota renters! On behalf of our partners at HOME Line, we’d like to help spread the word about the many changes to the law for renters and landlords. Over the next year, many new tenant protections that HOME Line and others advocated for at the Minnesota Legislature will become state law. This will be the most substantial change in Minnesota tenant/landlord law in a single session of the Legislature in the 165-year history of the state.

Click here for a brief downloadable/printable summary about these new policies (note: this summary was updated 8/10/23 to reflect a MN Supreme Court order voiding one of the new laws). Most of this is not the law just yet—the majority of the policies will become effective on January 1, 2024.
