Subletting your apartment is not allowed.

To remove a tenant from your lease, all renters must consent to the termination. If all parties agree that the tenant should be removed from the lease, management will consider the request.

You are not required to have renter’s insurance but it is highly recommended. Building structures, outdoor areas, and common areas are insured by the general building policy but individual units and possessions are not covered by this policy. A renter's insurance policy repays the renter in the event of a loss. Theft of property and/or loss resulting from a fire or damage can all be covered under a renter's insurance policy. Many people mistakenly think that a landlord is responsible for restoring damaged possessions or property stolen from a rental. The landlord’s policy covers the building and liability for events that happen outside the rental dwelling(s). The tenant is totally responsible for everything that happens inside the apartment. This means that if someone is injured inside the apartment or sues the renter, only the renter is liable.

CRP stands for Certificate of Rent Paid. It is a form residents of apartments receive each year, at the end of January, from their landlord. The form shows how much they paid in rent the prior year and what percentage of their rent qualifies for a potential Minnesota property tax refund. To qualify for the refund you have to meet certain income and residency requirements. You have until August of the following year to submit the property tax refund form (M1PR) with your CRP form.
