§ 580.04 — Requisites of Notice

Plain-Language Summary

This law spells out exactly what information must be included in a foreclosure notice in Minnesota. The notice must list the names involved, the mortgage details, how much is owed, a description of the property, and when and where the sale will happen.

Practical Notes
When this applies: When a lender prepares the published and served notice for a foreclosure by advertisement in Minnesota. Who this affects: Homeowners facing foreclosure, mortgage lenders, attorneys handling foreclosures. Key points: The notice must include the names of the borrower, lender, and any assignees; the original mortgage amount and the amount currently owed; a property description matching the mortgage plus the street address; the time and place of sale; the redemption period length; for residential properties, the notice must include the deadline for the homeowner to move out if they do not redeem.
