About Property Taxes in Minnesota
Minnesota property taxes are administered at the county level. Property is valued at 100% of estimated market value by county assessors, but different property types are classified at different rates — meaning only a fraction of market value is taxable. Residential homestead property benefits from a reduced class rate and a market value exclusion that further lowers the taxable value. Minnesota's property tax system is notable for its income-based refund programs (called the Homestead Credit Refund and Renter's Property Tax Refund) that provide meaningful relief to low- and moderate-income households.
Payment & Assessment
Minnesota property taxes are paid in two equal installments: First half: Due May 15 Second half: Due October 15 A penalty of 2% applies to the first half if unpaid by May 15; for the second half, 4% through October 15 and escalating thereafter. Most counties offer online payment. Contact your county treasurer for payment options.
