Minnesota has changed its regulations as regards Minnesota foreclosures of properties classified as homestead properties. The changes are intended to ameliorate the affects of abandoned properties on the property values of nearby residences. They are also intended to reduce the number of personal bankruptcies resulting from foreclosure of a primary residence. In addition to assisting homeowners, the regulations also affect lenders and give new powers over abandoned properties to municipal governments.
