Can a landlord in Minneapolis enter whenever they want?

Generally no — except that emergencies and the lease can change the picture. Minnesota landlord and tenant chapter is the Minnesota starting point. Write down any entry you believe was improper. Minneapolis and St. Paul are separate local layers. Use the city of the unit.

What if they keep coming in?

A pattern of unannounced entry can be a harassment or privacy problem. Minneapolis rental housing may take a complaint. Legal aid can tell you whether Minnesota gives a specific remedy. Do not change the locks without advice.

Is Minneapolis the same as St. Paul for renters?

Minnesota Chapter 504B is shared. The City ordinances are not. Minneapolis has its own rental licensing and tenant-protection rules. St. Paul is a separate desk on this site. Use the city of the unit.
