A Minnesota rental application is a form received by an applying tenant when seeking housing for residential property. It’s common for the landlord to request a non-refundable fee in order to process the application and verify the tenant’s employment and income.
Laws
- Application Fee – There is no limit on the fee that can be charged to the applicant. However, the landlord must provide receipts for screening service charges and return any unspent funds to the applicant (§ 504B.173).
- Security Deposit – There is no limit on the amount of the deposit amount (§ 504B.178).
