Have a Renter Issue? Contact MontPIRG Today!
Welcome to MontPIRG’s Tenant Landlord Guide!
Since 1981, MontPIRG has been standing up for the rights of consumers across Montana. Although the organization has grown in size and scope since its founding, one of our longstanding goals is fighting to ensure individuals have an understanding of the legal rights and responsibilities held by both tenants and landlords, the remedies provided by law for resolving disputes, and practical tips for maintaining a good landlord-tenant relationship. Here, you will find a digital copy of the Tenant-Landlord Guide, which seeks to provide Montanans with a comprehensive, accessible resource explaining the meaning of the state’s rental laws. Common disputes and potential solutions backed by Montana law are detailed in the FAQ section, and sample agreements and request letters are provided in the Document Library. If you need assistance with a rental issue, you should reach out to the local organizations listed in the Additional Resources section.
