Broker Update
How Is A Power
Of Attorney used?
A power of attorney (POA) can be used to designate a person “attorney-in-fact” to make and/or sign agreements on another person’s(principal) behalf. Not all POAs include the authority to sell property, so a power of attorney should be reviewed by legal counsel or at the very least and escrow officer to verify and advise in what capacity the power of attorney should be used
The two most common forms of powers of attorney for real estate transactions include:
General POA – A general POA allows an appointment of an individual or institution as attorney-in-fact. This type of POA confers broad powers to the attorney-in-fact, allowing them to act on the behalf of the principal regarding real estate, financial transactions, and other matters.
Special POA — A special POA gives the attorney-in-fact powers to act on the principal’s behalf for all matters pertaining to a specific real estate transaction. A special POA will typically spell out the duties of the attorney-in-fact as well as describe the real estate involved. Once the transaction has been completed, the POA will terminate.
The person granted the power of authority (attorney-in -fact) cannot receive any compensation or proceeds from the transaction unless specifically stated in the POA. Exceptions would be if the attorney-in-fact holds title to the property, as to their interest. The Attorney-in-fact may not direct the payment of the proceeds to other than the vested owner of the property.
For creating a POA in Arizona, the POA document will need to be notarized and signed in the presence of a witness who is over the age of 18. POAs executed in other states are also valid in Arizona, although the title company or closing attorney may require that the attorney-in-fact provide an affidavit stating that the POA is still in effect and that the principal is not deceased.
As always, let us know of any questions
