Laws & Regulations

Nothing can negatively impact you and your client as much as legal liability. Whether it stems from new state laws or agency regulation, real estate professionals understand the implications of governmental action.

To address these legal entanglements, your Minnesota REALTORS^® works hard representing the interests of the industry lobbying issues that will affect your business.

Whether it’s a Legislative mandate, state agency action, legal ruling or organized coalition your Minnesota REALTORS^® have a presence representing the interests of the real estate professionals and their clients.

Two tools to help you steer through the myriad of rules and regulations are the Minnesota REALTOR^® Reference Book and the annual Legislative Update. Each is designed to keep you on top of the changes affecting you or your clients.

The Minnesota REALTOR^® Reference Book is a compendium of state laws and agency regulations summarized so you can inform your client of their obligations under the law. Statute and Rule numbers with Internet hotlinks make it easy to access the regulations affecting your client.

Our annual Minnesota REALTORS^® Legislative Update gives you the information and background material to implement new Minnesota laws. Summaries provide perspective on why the legislature took action on the issue and how it may impact you and your clients.
