In this form the current beneficiary/lender appoints a new trustee/successor trustee in place of the current trustee for a Trust Indenture/Deed of Trust.
71-1-306. Qualifications of trustee -- successor trustee.
(1) The trustee of a trust indenture under this part must be:
(a) an attorney who is licensed to practice law in Montana;
(b) a bank, trust company, or savings and loan association authorized to do business in Montana under the laws of Montana or the United States; or
(c) a title insurer or title insurance producer or agency authorized to do business in Montana under the laws of Montana.
(2) The beneficiary may appoint a successor trustee at any time by filing for record, in the office of the clerk and recorder of each county in which the trust property or some part of the trust property is situated, a substitution of trustee. The substitution must identify the trust indenture by stating the names of the original parties to the trust indenture and the date of recordation and the book and page where the information is recorded, must state the name and mailing address of the new trustee, and must be executed and acknowledged by all of the beneficiaries designated in the trust indenture or their successors in interest. From the time the substitution is filed for record, the new trustee is vested with all the power, duties, authority, and title of the trustee named in the trust indenture and of any successor trustee.

The booklet is too wordy. Not concise enough for someone who is inexperienced at filling out your form. It would be nice to have a picture example of what you are talking about. When we got to the Registars office we found out they do not have a notary. Would have been nice to know before we went. The form asks for page and book which is no longer needed. So why have it on there?
Thank you, Marolyn, this is useful feedback. A completed sample is actually included with the form, and your note tells us we should make it easier to find and tie it more directly to the instructions, so we'll do that. We'll also add a "before you begin" checklist and a clearer note that the document needs to be notarized in advance, since recording offices don't provide notary service. On the book and page: that reference is required by the Utah statute this affidavit is filed under (§ 57-1-5.1) and still applies to older deeds recorded before counties moved to entry-number-only indexing around 2000. You enter whichever reference appears on your recorded deed and leave the rest blank. Appreciate you taking the time to write in.

status was canceled. said i needed to record directly. would be 5 stars if it worked.
Sorry for the inconvenience Roger. Unfortunately, not all jurisdictions in the country have progressed to the point of being able to accept all document types for e-recording.

I recently purchased online DIY legal forms, and I must say I was thoroughly impressed. The documents provided were accurate, comprehensive, and precisely what I needed. The accompanying guide was clear, instructive, and really bridged the gap for someone like me who isn't well-versed in legal jargon. What stood out the most, however, was the inclusion of the example. It served as a practical reference and made the entire process so much more approachable. Being able to see a filled-out sample made all the difference. Overall, this product has been invaluable in helping me navigate legal processes on my own.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Great service! Super easy to use! I used the service to download a deed notice to do a TOD on a property in Fairfax County, VA. Just a heads up that Fairfax County required me to add the last deed book and page # onto the deed notice but otherwise all was just as they required!
Thank you!
