MHP thanks lawmakers for coming together to advance a bipartisan $165M housing agreement that includes critical program funding to help strengthen communities across Minnesota.

We thank Governor Walz for his commitment to housing and urge him to sign the bill into law.

“If you had told us at the beginning of session we would pass a $165 million housing bill in the final days, no one would have believed it,” said Rep. Spencer Igo (R-Wabana Township), before a housing finance and policy conference committee approved an agreement Tuesday.

READ: "a remarkable bipartisan coalition of business, labor, clergy, developers and low-income housing advocates has rallied around a bill called the Starter Home Act"

The Starter Home Act will put housing within reach for more Minnesotans.

In addition to ameliorating Minnesota’s housing shortage, ending local governments’ stranglehold on building is also the best long-term solution to another pressing problem: School re-segregation.

"When modest starter homes, townhouses, duplexes, accessory dwelling units and apartments face barriers or lengthy approval processes, the result is fewer choices and higher prices" https://www.startribune.com/affordable-housing-crisis-starter-homes-mortgage-rent-costs/601828819

Thank you: Habitat for Humanity of Minnesota, Habitat for Humanity - Twin Cities, Central Minnesota Habitat for Humanity, Habitat For Humanity of South Central MN, and North St. Louis County Habitat for Humanity.

A new Eviction Lab report shows eviction trends for 2025. It confirms that in 2025 Minnesota continues to show increased evictions above historic trends.

Amid benefit cuts, rising rents, and immigration enforcement, renters faced mounting pressures in 2025. Our data show landlords still filed over 1.2 million eviction cases across the country.
