A proposed class action was filed on July 17, 2026, against the landlords of Glen at Burnsville Apartments, accusing them of deceptive pricing practices and unsafe living conditions. The lawsuit, filed in Dakota County, Minnesota, claims that tenants were misled by advertised rental prices that did not include mandatory fees, making apartments appear more affordable than they actually were.
The complaint names Priderock Capital Partners, LLC, Priderock Capital Management, LLC, PRCP-Minnesota I, LLC, and PRCP-Minnesota Stone, LLC as defendants. These entities collectively own and operate the Glen at Burnsville property. The lawsuit seeks damages and injunctive relief on behalf of tenants who signed leases in the past six years, alleging violations related to undisclosed fees, improperly apportioned utilities, and serious habitability issues.
According to the complaint, the landlords advertised apartments at prices lower than what tenants were required to pay each month by omitting mandatory charges. Some of these charges are described as "junk" fees that increased revenue for the landlords without providing meaningful benefits to tenants. Additionally, the complaint alleges that tenants were improperly charged for common-area utilities and that the landlords breached the implied warranty of habitability by failing to maintain controlled-access buildings and adequately address pest infestations.
Alexandra M. Robinson, an attorney representing the tenants, stated, "No tenant should be forced to discover after signing a lease that the advertised rent was not the real price of their home. We believe Glen at Burnsville used undisclosed, mandatory fees to make apartments appear more affordable than they actually were, while also failing to provide tenants with the safe and habitable housing they were promised." Robinson and Michele R. Fisher of Nichols Kaster, PLLP are representing the plaintiffs. The case is titled Miller v. Priderock Capital Partners, LLC, et al., Case No. 19WS-CV-26-808.
The lawsuit highlights broader concerns about rental housing practices, including the use of hidden fees and inadequate maintenance. For more details, additional information about the case can be found at nka.com/GlenAtBurnsville.
