Generally Investor friendly
STRs are explicitly allowed citywide and treated like other residential rentals, with clear, relatively modest licensing fees (e.g., Type 2: $350 for one unit, $25 per additional unit), a standard inspection process, and a 3% lodging tax—overall a predictable compliance path. The main drag is Minnesota’s 10‑unit ownership cap, which limits larger‑scale investment, and typical life‑safety and reporting requirements add modest operational friction.
