I bet a lot of tenants right now are unemployed and wondering how they are going to manage to pay the rent. Landlords are probably wondering the same thing because, typically, the landlord depends on receiving rent from the tenants to pay the mortgage.
Tenants who find themselves unemployed should not wait to apply for unemployment benefits. In other words, tenants who are unemployed should apply for unemployment benefits immediately, sooner rather than later.
Normally, I address landlords in my blog posts, but this time I am going to address tenants If you know you are going to have a problem paying the rent, you should reach out to your landlord, and have a specific plan for getting the rent paid. Most landlords will work with you on a plan to get your rent paid. Also, here is a link to Anoka County Economic Assistance:

Many tenants may know that Governor Walz suspended the right of landlords of residential tenants to bring an eviction, unless the eviction is for a violation of Minn. Stat. 504B.171 or the tenany is endangering themselves or others. Still, tenants should continue to pay the rent, even if the landlord's right to evict is temporarily suspended. Her is a log post that I wrote on the subject:

Landlords are not without options, even under the executive order. I would be happy to discuss potential options with any landlords. To that end, please give me a call at 763-290-0445. That is my direct line, but the odds are you will get the receptionist.
Every landlord – tenant situation is unique, and I recommend that landlords talk to an attorney experienced in evictions and landlord tenant law before taking action based on this blog post. To that end, I invite landlords to give me a call at 763-290-0445 to discuss their unique situation. The first thing I will ask you is what you want to have happen because, ultimately, the landlord is in control. I have represented many landlords, BUT DO NOT REPRESENT RESIDENTIAL TENANTS.
