In Montana, a landlord may give a 3-day written notice to pay overdue rent, generally a 14-day notice to cure other lease violations, and 30 days' written notice to end a month-to-month tenancy.
Montana requires a written will signed by the testator and at least two witnesses, recognizes holographic wills whose signature and material portions are in the testator's handwriting, and allows self-proved wills.
Montana follows the Uniform Power of Attorney Act, so a power of attorney must be signed by the principal and notarization is not required for validity, but a notarized signature is presumed genuine.
A Montana declaration must be signed by the declarant (or another at the declarant's direction) and witnessed by two individuals; notarization is not required.
A Montana deed must be acknowledged (or proved by a subscribing witness) before it can be recorded, and the Montana Constitution prohibits any tax on the sale or transfer of real property.
