Minnesota's homestead classification system taxes primary residences at a lower class rate than rental or commercial property, reducing your effective tax burden compared to non-owner-occupied homes. Contact the Roseau County Assessor's office to ensure your property is classified as homestead when you purchase — the classification must be properly recorded to receive the rate benefit. File your homestead application with the county assessor immediately after closing to lock in the reduced rate for the upcoming assessment year.
