On July 28th, HOME Line hosted another COVID-19 webinar—the recording is further below. We provided an overview of the new Minnesota eviction moratorium phaseout law, and we were joined by guest speaker Kim Tennyson, an attorney who advises and represents landlords, to provide a landlord legal perspective on the eviction moratorium phaseout. After we provided a brief overview of Minnesota’s eviction moratorium phaseout law, Kim fielded a wide range of questions about the law.
HOME Line has been hosting webinars since mid-April on COVID-19 and how it affects Minnesota landlords and tenants. Over 6,000 tenants, social workers and landlords have watched these live presentations and over 3,200 have watched recorded versions. Consider registering for one of our upcoming webinars:
