The market value of homes must be in compliance with standards established by the Minnesota Department of Revenue and Minnesota Statutes.  The market value should also represent the most probable selling price of the property as of the assessment date.

Homeowners may apply for the homestead classification which may offer some property tax relief.  We encourage you to apply for the homestead classification at Robbinsdale City Hall (8 am to 4 pm).  To learn more about qualifying for homestead, click no the link above or call our city offices at 763-531-1217.

How do I apply for a Homestead Classification?

• File for Homestead in person: You may fill out an application in person, or you may download Homestead Application from the Hennepin County website, and bring it into Robbinsdale City Hall to file for homestead.
• File for Homestead by mail:  Please download Homestead Application from the Hennepin County website and mail your application & ownership documentation to:

Robbinsdale City Hall

Homestead classifications do not automatically change when owners change. Please include copies of the following: Deed, Certificate of Real Estate Value (you receive these items at the closing) and a picture I.D. Without any ownership documentation, a homestead application cannot be granted.

After you file for Homestead, the City of Robbinsdale will mail you a final verification form, to sign and return to Robbinsdale City Hall within 10 days.
