Study resolution on the landlord tenant act and mobile home lot rental act

HJ 41 was a joint resolution that requested an interim study of Montana's Residential Landlord and Tenant Act and the Residential Mobile Home Lot Rental Act, which impact renters and mobile home park residents across the state. The study aimed to identify outdated provisions, compare Montana's laws to those in other states, and examine the effects of private equity firms owning housing. Its purpose was to find opportunities for clarifying, modernizing, or reforming these laws, with findings to be reported to the 70th Legislature.
