In Montana, real property can be transferred from one party to another by executing a warranty deed. These deeds are valid for both residential and commercial transactions.

Warranty deeds are not statutory in Montana. The state provides a general form that may be used for a warranty deed (Mont. Code Ann. 70-20-103). The warranties included in this type of deed are not defined by statute, except for covenants implied by the use of the word "grant." The word "grant" implies that, prior to the execution of the conveyance, the grantor did not convey the same estate or any right, title, or interest to any person other than the grantee. It also implies that, at the time of execution of the conveyance, the estate was free from encumbrances done, made, or suffered by the grantor or any person claiming under the grantor (Mont. Code Ann. 70-20-304). A standard warranty deed also covenants that the grantor will warrant and defend the title against the lawful claims of all person.

A lawful warranty deed includes the grantor's full name, mailing address, and marital status, and the grantee's full name, mailing address, marital status, and vesting. Vesting describes how the grantee holds title to the property. Generally, real property is owned in either sole ownership or in co-ownership.

For Montana residential property, the primary methods for holding title are tenancy in common and joint tenancy. A grant of ownership of real estate to two or more persons is presumed to create a tenancy in common, unless a joint tenancy is specifically created (Mont. Code Ann. 70-1-307, 70-1-314).

As with any conveyance of realty, a warranty deed requires a complete legal description of the parcel. Recite the prior deed reference to maintain a clear chain of title, and detail any restrictions associated with the property. The deed should meet all state and county standards of form and content for recorded documents.

Any party transferring real property is required to file a Realty Transfer Certificate, subject to a $500 penalty. File the form with the clerk and recorder in the county where the property is located. (Mont. Code Ann. 15-7-305). The Realty Transfer Certificate includes a Water Rights Disclosure. Contact the Montana Department of Revenue with questions regarding the transfer, division, or exemption of water rights. For a valid transfer, record the deed at the clerk and recorder's office in the county where the property is located. Contact the same office to confirm accepted forms of payment.

This article is provided for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for legal advice. Contact an attorney with questions about warranty deeds, or for any other issues related to transfers of real property in Montana.

The Website was easy to use. I live in Houston Texas and mother recently passed away in California and I need affidavit of joint tenant forms. I was provided all the forms necessary to complete the documents. I had been a legal secretary in California about 20 years ago and just need the current forms and received them all very quickly.
