Minnesota Notice of Non-Renewal

This Notice of Non-Renewal 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 Notice of Non-Renewal
Month-to-month terminationWritten notice of one rental period (max three months)Minn. Stat. §504B.135
Rent-increase noticeNo specific statute; month-to-month changes need the termination notice period
Rent controlOnly by voter approval — St. Paul has a rent stabilization ordinanceMinn. Stat. §471.9996

Rent, late fees & fees

  • Late fees — A late fee is allowed only if the landlord and tenant agreed to it in writing, and it can’t exceed 8% of the overdue rent. For subsidized tenancies it’s calculated only on the tenant’s share (§504B.177).
  • Total Monthly Payment — Every non-optional fee must be disclosed in the lease, and rent plus all non-optional fees must appear as the “Total Monthly Payment” on the first page, along with whether utilities are included. Violations carry treble damages (§504B.120).
  • Payment methods — Cash rent requires a written receipt. Since August 1, 2026, a landlord that uses an online payment platform must offer a free alternative when the platform isn’t working, and can’t charge late fees or evict when both methods fail (§504B.118).
  • Early renewal — For leases over ten months, a landlord can’t require the tenant to decide on renewal earlier than six months before the lease ends (§504B.144).
  • Rent control — Cities can control rents only through an ordinance approved by voters in a general election (§471.9996). St. Paul’s voter-approved rent stabilization ordinance limits most annual increases, with exemptions; check local rules before raising rent there.
