Titles >Yours In Deed

The way that you hold title to your property has legal, tax, and estate-planning consequences. Many buyers do not receive adequate professional advice on this important aspect of property ownership.

If you are purchasing property by yourself, you will be acquiring title by sole (or "separate") ownership, single ownership, or severalty ownership. The term "severalty" does not denote more than one person - it is a legal term meaning that sole ownership is severed from all other forms of ownership.

If you are purchasing property with others, the most common forms of co-ownership are tenancy in common, joint tenancy, and community property. Tenants in common can be created when two or more related or unrelated people hold title to a property either equally or unequally. Each individual has the right to do whatever he wishes with his interest in the property. For example, he can sell his interest, give it away, or will it to someone else.

Before you take title, you should seek advice from your tax advisor and an attorney, particularly if you are buying the property with another person.

Cary and her family followed their hearts to Northwest Montana and are very happy they did! After many years working with her builder/husband in real estate related areas, Cary now takes pride in helping others fulfill their dreams of owning a home or land in Montana. She enjoys horses, skiing, hiking, boating, and all other aspects of the outdoor life available in the Flathead Valley. Contact her and she will work diligently to make YOUR dream come true too!]
Hilary Jo Anderson joined her mom Cary Hofstad in February 2005 with her Realtor salesperson license. Cary Jos Team now consists of Cary Hofstad who is a broker and Listing's Specialist and Hilary Jo Anderson who is a Buyers Specialist. Another member of the family that is involved in real estate is Dave Hofstad, Hilarys dad and Carys husband. Dave owns and operates Hilzac, Corp. which currently is developing nearly 100 lots called Stratford Village south of Kalispell. Dave brings to the family more than 25 years of building experience and an enormous amount of new, affordable housing for Flathead Valley residents. With great role models in the industry like these, Hilary is enthusiastic to develop her career as a successful Realtor.
Hilary graduated from Montana State University in 2005 with a degree in Consumer Science and specific training in Human Development. Her extensive background in consumer economics and family finance at Montana State and multiple years as a customer service specialist will help her succeed as a Buyers Agent and Client Care Manager. One of Hilarys main desires is to focus on the first-time home-buyer market, ensuring that consumers have a wealth of knowledge regarding their real estate transaction and that consumer interests are always kept as the number one priority.
Originally from the Seattle area, Hilary has always loved outdoor experiences as a young girl and continued to pursue outdoor activities when her family moved to Kalispell in 1995. She frequents the outdoors, doing anything that allows her time outside including skiing, biking, camping, hiking and anything else under the big sky. She recently married a great guy in October 2006 whose name is Paul Anderson. Paul just completed his Electricians Apprenticeship and is currently working on large commercial projects in Kalispell. Hilary also has hobbies in photography, quilting and hopes to be a decent cook someday. Give Hilary a call if you know of anyone looking to buy or sell real estate. She has a flexible schedule and is happy to make time for anyone!
