What does a Brooklyn Park rental license require?
Brooklyn Park charges $200 to license a single family home, townhome or condominium, $200 per side for a duplex, and $200 plus $40 per unit for a small apartment building of 4 to 15 units (City of Brooklyn Park rental license application). Converting an owner occupied home to a rental carries a one time conversion fee of $750, which catches a lot of first time landlords by surprise.
The Brooklyn Park license year runs October 1 to September 30, and every license expires on September 30 regardless of when it was issued. A new application is prorated by quarter: $200 from September through December, $150 from January through March, $100 from April through June, and $50 in July and August. Renewing late costs $100 for the first 15 days and $200 after that.
The license fee covers the initial inspection and one follow up. Every inspection beyond those two costs $125, so the cheapest approach is to have the property genuinely ready the first time. Owners must also complete Safe Rental Housing Training within one year of the license being issued, and must report any change of ownership, management or contact details within 30 days. Applications take ten business days to approve, which matters when you are trying to get a property on the market.
Who pays the city utilities on a Brooklyn Park rental?
Tenants can pay the city utility bill, but the account stays in the owner name.
Brooklyn Park utility billing can be reached on 763-493-8185. We set this up at move in so the right party is on the account from day one, which is the most common source of a surprise balance at move out.
Worth re-checking rather than assuming. More metro cities are dropping tenant payments on city utility accounts entirely, so whatever Brooklyn Park allowed when you bought may not be what Brooklyn Park allows now. We confirm it at onboarding.
