Montana land goes into a living trust easily and comes back out only by a deed the trustee signs. This Montana quitclaim deed is built for that outbound direction: the grantor is the trustee then serving, signing as trustee and not individually, and the deed releases to the grantee whatever right, title, and interest the trustee and the trust hold at delivery, with no warranty of title.
What the trustee's signature moves
Montana Code Annotated Section 72-38-1111 is what makes a one signature deed out of a trust work. Subsection (2) puts the whole estate conveyed in the trustee, subject only to the trustee's duties, and leaves the beneficiaries no interest in the land itself. Subsection (6) carries that estate back out: a later conveyance from the person the original conveyance designated as trustee, or from the successor trustee, conveys the whole estate vested in the trustee, except as limited by the terms of the conveyance. Beneficiaries are not signers here, and the form gives them no line.
The signer is often not the trustee the old deed named
Trusteeships change hands while land sits in a trust. Subsection (6) allows a successor trustee's identity to be established by a recorded affidavit giving that trustee's name and address and the date and circumstances of succession, and subsection (8) accepts that affidavit or another recorded instrument naming a serving trustee. Section 72-38-1013 supplies the companion, a certification of trust stating the trust's existence, the settlor, the acting trustee, the relevant powers, and the revocability of the trust, acknowledged on request so it may be recorded. Those instruments are prepared and recorded separately and are not included here, so the form works the chain from both ends: Section 7 takes the recording reference for the instrument that vested title in the trustee, and Section 8 takes the reference for a certification or affidavit standing of record, reading None recorded when none is.
A release, with the covenant word left out
Montana ties its implied deed covenants to one word. Under Section 70-20-304, the word grant in a fee conveyance brings two covenants with it, one against an earlier conveyance of the same estate by the grantor and one against encumbrances of the grantor's own making, unless express terms restrain them. This form keeps the word out of its operative sentence: the grantor remises, releases, and forever quitclaims, the deed disclaims covenant and warranty of title in express terms, and title reaching the trust or the trustee later does not pass through it. Montana enacted no statutory quitclaim form, and its Supreme Court reads a deed's character from the whole document.
One trustee, one certificate, in a representative capacity
Section 1 names the acting trustee with the trustee capacity and a mailing address, Section 2 identifies the trust by name and by the date of the trust instrument, Section 10 carries one signature line whose printed name includes the capacity, and one certificate follows, built on Montana's short form for an acknowledgment in a representative capacity at Section 1-5-610(2). Arrangements that put this configuration in the Montana record include a successor trustee distributing trust land to a beneficiary after the settlor's death, a trustee of a revocable trust deeding a parcel back to the settlor, a trustee conveying to the trustee of a restated trust, and a lifetime transfer the trust's terms permit. The form is not set up for two cotrustees signing together, and it is a deed out of a trust rather than a conveyance into one.
What the recording counter expects
Recording happens at the office of the clerk and recorder for the county holding the land. For documents recorded on or after October 1, 2025, the statewide fee is twenty dollars for a first page and ten dollars per additional page. The grantee's post office address sits in the body because Section 7-4-2618 keeps the clerk and recorder from receiving a deed without it, and the return name and address print in the upper left corner of the first page, where Section 7-4-2636 puts them. A Realty Transfer Certificate travels with the deed and keeps the money figures on a confidential filing.
Included in the download: the deed as a fillable PDF, a completed example filled in for a Ravalli County distribution from a family trust, and a plain language guide that takes the numbered sections one at a time and closes on the trust and recording statutes behind them. The materials are informational and are not legal advice.

I was introduced to Deeds.com from my title company. I wanted the title company to do a courtesy recording for me and they suggested Deeds.com. Best suggestion in a while. The interface to use the website was seemlessly easy. The communication with the service staff was thorough and prompt. After the initial verification process (which the photo app was a little tricky), everything was easy. Will use them again.
Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience!

This was such an easy process and even tho you had to pay a $15 - to me it was well worth not having to drive downtown etc or take the risk of mailing the documents (fearing that they would get lost). I'll be using this from now on...
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

Deeds.com had much better and fuller information than any other help i found (90% complete vs 60 % complete); they tout how up-to-date they are on all the counties in the country and the idiosyncrasies of each county's forms and procedures; but some minor points of the info i needed were missing or confusing. Including that they sold me on e-Recording my deed through them, only to find out after i had done all the prep for that, that they had failed to tell me upfront (or i missed it somehow) that the county i was dealing with did not yet accept online recording. So, they were by far the best i found, but not 100%.
Thank you for your honest and thorough feedback Trace. We will review your concerns carefully in an effort to improve our services. Hope you have an amazing day.
