A Montana Landlord's Waiver of Right to Retain Property is a legal document that outlines an agreement between a landlord and a tenant regarding the disposition of abandoned property left behind by the tenant. This waiver allows the landlord to waive their right to retain or sell any property left behind, instead granting the tenant the ability to reclaim their items within a specified timeframe. In Montana, there are two types of Landlord's Waivers of Right to Retain Property: 1. General Montana Landlord's Waiver of Right to Retain Property: This type of waiver is used when a tenant voluntarily vacates the premises and leaves behind personal belongings. By signing this waiver, the landlord agrees not to keep or sell any abandoned property and allows the tenant to retrieve their items within a certain period, typically 10 to 30 days. It is important to note that the tenant may be responsible for any costs associated with storage and removal of their property. 2. Montana Landlord's Waiver of Right to Retain Property after Termination: In specific cases where a tenancy has been terminated, either through eviction or lease termination, this waiver is utilized. Similar to the general waiver, the landlord agrees to waive their right to retain any abandoned property, granting the tenant a limited time to reclaim their belongings. This timeframe is usually determined by Montana state law or the terms of the lease agreement.
