When a Tenant is behind on rent, Minnesota Landlords must file a 14-Day Demand for Rent before filing an eviction for non-payment of rent.


  • Minnesota Eviction Laws: 14-Day Demand for Rent

    As of January 1, 2024, Minnesota enacted new eviction requirements. Before filing an eviction for non-payment of rent, Landlords must issue a 14-Day Demand for Rent. This Demand must include:

    • The total amount of rent due;
    • Specific accounting of the rent due stating how much is for rent, late fees, or other charges;
    • The name and address of the Landlord or the Landlord’s agent who is authorized to receive rent;
    • And specific language from the Minnesota statute about the Tenant’s right to seek legal help.

    • Our Minnesota 14-Day Demand for Rent complies with all Minnesota requirements and is easy to customize online.
