Regular Homestead
To qualify for a homestead, a property must be both owned and occupied by the owner on January 2nd of the assessment year for a full homestead, or on December 31 of the assessment year for a mid-year homestead. You must also be a Minnesota resident. Applications must be received by December 31.
The interest of a purchaser under a contract for deed entered into prior to January 2nd is sufficient to entitle the property to a homestead classification if the purchaser is in actual occupancy of the property on January 2nd.
