 The State Bar of Montana has published a new manual for attorneys titled "Montana Real Estate Transactions." The 360-page manual is authored by
Charles W. Willey, a Missoula attorney and an adjunct professor at The University of Montana School of
Law.
The manual offers a comprehensive education on the history, statutes, and case law regarding any real estate transaction that may take place in Montana. It provides in-depth coverage of legal issues involving water rights, seller's and realtor's duties, deeds, covenants, easements, oil, gas, and minerals interests, and much more.
The manual also offers sample real estate transaction forms and discusses different types of real estate agreements. The necessary environmental (and other) disclosures are also outlined. Indexed by a detailed and easy-to-use table of contents, the manual should become any Montana real estate lawyer's number one source for Montana-specific real estate knowledge.
The "Montana Real Estate Transactions" manual was more than four years in the making, compiled from Mr. Willey's well-updated UM Law School lecture notes.
The manual costs $180 and can be ordered by calling the State Bar of Montana at 406.442.7660.
