Interim study of uniform common interest ownership laws
HJ 50 is a joint resolution requesting an interim study of uniform common interest ownership laws in Montana. This study will review the Uniform Common Interest Ownership Act (UCIOWA) and current state laws governing owners' associations and condominiums. Its purpose is to determine if legislative changes are warranted to update and improve these laws, many of which have not been thoroughly amended since 1965. The study will involve input from interested parties, including representatives from banking, real estate, and land title industries, with its final results reported to the 70th Legislature.
