St. Paul required inspections for non-owner occ. MFH
Hello! I want to be sure I have everything ready to go. We close on a duplex in St Paul on October 5th, and we want to be sure we hit the ground running. St. Paul's site isn't exactly explicit on everything you need, so is it just the Fire Certificate of Occupancy? If so, can that be done before closing or does it have to be done after?
I know the city of Minneapolis requires a landlord license, but that doesn't seem to be the case in St Paul from what I'm seeing. If there's anything else required to be a legal landlord in St Paul, I'd love to know :)

I own a rental in North St. Paul and they’re similar (Ramsey County). As long as you apply and get an inspection scheduled, they’re not going to hassle you already have renters. They’re not out to ruin a business, just to make sure the place is safe and livable.
