I'm listed with someone else as power of attorney, how do I get off the list?

In Missouri, although you may be named in a power of attorney, you do not have to act. Inform the principal and the other individual named in the power of attorney that you refuse to act. This notification should be done in writing.

Will the bank let us keep our home on mortgage if my husband’s father passes and has my husband as beneficiary of home?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
Probably not. A federal law called "Garn-St.Germaine" (12 USC ? 1701j-3) says that transfer to a relative on the death of the borrower does not trigger the "due on sale" clause of the mortgage. You will take the property subject to the mortgage, but as long as you keep paying the mortgage, taxes and insurance you should be alright. That said, you'll be better off refinancing if you can.

Will my son not be able to save anything on his interest even though he decides to pay his loan in advance?

James E. Reed
Answered by attorney James E. Reed
Estate Planning lawyer at Vandervoort, Christ & Fisher, P.C.
The language "accrued and unpaid interest" means interest that is already due under the loan. So, if your son has made all monthly payments on time and then pays something in addition to the monthly payment, there would be no "accrued and unpaid interest" so the entire additional payment would be applied towards reduction of principal.
