Minnesota's DSCR market is bifurcated by the Saint Paul rent-control ordinance. Minneapolis remains a strong cap-rate market with no rent cap and growing employment. Saint Paul properties require legal-rent verification and grow NOI only at the 3% cap. Greater Minnesota, Rochester (Mayo Clinic), Duluth, St. Cloud, offers higher yields with thinner deal flow.
