Minnesota has no rent control statute and no dollar cap on rent increases. A rent change on a month-to-month tenancy takes effect at a new term, so notice follows the termination rule in Sec. 504B.135. A 2023 protection, Sec. 504B.147, bars a rent-increase notice shorter than the period the lease gives the tenant to quit.
Minnesota does not set a statewide rent-increase cap or a single fixed notice number. Because a rent change on a tenancy at will applies to a new rental period, landlords use the termination notice in Minn. Stat. Sec. 504B.135: notice 'at least as long as the interval between the time rent is due or three months, whichever is less' (one month for monthly rent). Sec. 504B.147, added in 2023, provides that where a lease sets a time for the tenant to give notice to quit, 'the landlord may not give a notice to quit the premises or notice of a rent increase that is shorter than the time period the lease provides for the tenant to give notice.' Some cities such as St. Paul impose local rent-stabilization rules.
No specific statutory penalty for the increase itself. An increase imposed mid-fixed-term without lease authority, or with shorter notice than Sec. 504B.135 or Sec. 504B.147 require, is unenforceable; local rent-stabilization ordinances may add penalties.
