A Minnesota month-to-month rental agreement is a type of lease that offers both tenants and landlords the flexibility of tenancy-at-will. This means that either party can terminate the agreement with just one month’s notice.
Unlike a fixed-term lease, a month-to-month lease has no fixed end date and can only be concluded through formal notice from either party.
Legal Requirements for Month-to-Month Leases
Minimum Termination Period: To terminate the lease agreement, either party must provide at least one month’s notice [1] .
Rent Increase: A notice period of at least 30 days is required for increasing the rent [2] .

Minnesota Month-to-Month Eviction
In Minnesota, for month-to-month rental agreements, the law specifies that landlords must provide a 30-day notice for lease termination. The notice must give tenants at least as long as the interval between rent payments or at least three months to leave the property, whichever period is shorter.
