Coon Rapids, Minn., Code of Ordinances ch. 12-900 § 12-906

Plain English

Under Coon Rapids Code of Ordinances ch. 12-900 § 12-906, a rental dwelling license cannot be transferred from one owner to another. When ownership of a rental property changes hands, the existing license expires automatically at that moment. The incoming owner is required to obtain a new license under Chapter 12-900 before the ownership transfer takes place.

For Property Managers

Operators subject to ch. 12-900 § 12-906 should be aware that any sale or transfer of a rental dwelling or rental dwelling unit immediately voids the current rental license. A compliant property owner planning to sell or transfer ownership typically ensures that the incoming owner has submitted a license application under Chapter 12-900 before the transaction closes. Failing to coordinate this timing can leave the property operating without a valid license from the moment the transfer is recorded.

For Tenants

Section 12-906 of the Coon Rapids Code of Ordinances means that when a rental property is sold, the new owner must hold a valid license before taking ownership — the prior owner's license does not carry over. Tenants who discover that a new owner is operating without a current license may have grounds to raise that status as a concern with the city. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Coon Rapids ordinances can help residents understand what options are generally available when a licensing gap occurs.
