Minnesota Lease Violation Notice

This Lease Violation Notice is built with Minnesota as the governing state. These are the Minnesota landlord-tenant rules that most often bear on it, with the statute for each.

Minnesota rules at a glance

Minnesota rules for a Lease Violation Notice
Nonpayment notice14-day written notice with required statementsMinn. Stat. §504B.321, subd. 1a
Month-to-month terminationWritten notice of one rental period (max three months)Minn. Stat. §504B.135

Ending a Minnesota tenancy

A month-to-month tenancy ends by written notice at least as long as the interval between rent due dates, or three months if that is shorter (§504B.135). A fixed-term lease ends on its end date unless the lease requires notice or renews automatically.

Key Minnesota notice periods
Month-to-month (either party)One full rental period, in writing§504B.135
Nonpayment of rent14 days (longer if a local ordinance requires)§504B.321, subd. 1a
Death of the sole tenantTwo months’ written notice, ending on the last day of a month§504B.265
  • Nonpayment notice — Before filing for unpaid rent or fees, the landlord must deliver a written notice with the total due, an itemized accounting, the name and address for payment, and three statutory statements about legal aid, emergency assistance and the 14-day deadline. A case filed without it is dismissed and expunged (§504B.321, subds. 1, 1a).
  • Violence survivors — A tenant who fears imminent violence after domestic abuse, criminal sexual conduct, sexual extortion or harassment can end the lease with signed written notice and a qualifying document, owing rent only through the month the tenancy ends (§504B.206).
  • Medical need — A tenant found by a medical professional to need to move into a care facility may end the lease early (§504B.266).
  • Abandonment — If a tenant leaves early, the landlord must make reasonable efforts to re-rent at fair rental value; the tenant isn’t liable for rent after a new tenancy starts (§504B.154).
