Transferring Title under a Montana Beneficiary Deed
In 2007, the Montana Legislature enacted the state's beneficiary deed law, found at Montana Code Annotated Section 72-6-121. All following parenthetical references identify the part of that section which contains additional information. The statute outlines the requirements for a beneficiary to gain ownership of real property from a beneficiary deed at 72-6-121(12).
The process involves completing and recording an affidavit of death. This document must contain the information specified in 7-4-2613(1)(c), including recording details from the beneficiary deed, a full legal description of the property interest, names and addresses of all surviving grantee beneficiaries, and evidence of the owner's death. In addition, attach an official copy of the deceased owner's death certificate. When the affidavit of death is completed and notarized, submit it to the clerk and recorder in each county in which the real property or any part of the real property is located.
Beneficiaries take ownership of the property subject to any mortgages, taxes, and obligations of record (1), including claims from the department of public health and human services may assert a claim pursuant to 53-6-167 for medical assistance (7). Because of these or other reasons, some beneficiaries may decide not to accept the transfer. In that case, follow the procedures outlined in 72-2-811 to disclaim the interest.
Each circumstance is unique, so contact an attorney with specific questions or for complex situations.

The form was straight forward and very easy to complete. It took me less than 15 minutes to complete. Make sure you have the "current deed' available' when completing the form.
Thank you for your feedback Barry. Have a fantastic day!

I thought the forms were reasonably priced, the instructions included in the packet were thorough, and the examples helpful. Thank you for the additional CDR forms too. I contacted the Recorder's office via email with a question and Jennifer Bowser answered promptly. Job well done! However, when I delivered the deed and Real Property Transfer Declaration to the Clerk's office in Lafayette, the clerk was unfamiliar with the Declaration document being submitted and it took some time to convince her to submit the form without charging the recording fee. She even tried to phone the recorder's office for clarification, but no one answered. There then was an additional form at that office that I had to complete called Recording Request/Transmittal Form. I would suggest including that form with instructions in your on-line packet to speed up the process when a Deed is delivered to the County Clerk's satellite office. I do not expect every clerk to know all the particulars of recording requirements but a little knowledge wouldn't hurt.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
