When someone says they have Power Of Attorney, should they have a document with the signature of the person they are making the decision for?

Answered by attorney David L. Leon
Estate Planning lawyer at David L. Leon, P.C.
The POA dies with the power grantor. The document needs to be signed by the power grantor and notarized. A witness is not necessary.

If one heir out of 6 refuses to sign for a house to be sold, is there a way the others can sell it without that signature?

Answered by attorney Bernard H. Greenberg
Estate Planning lawyer at Kokish & Goldmanis, P.C.
The Personal Representative generally has power to sell property of the estate without the consent of the beneficiaries unless the Will provides otherwise or the Court has entered an Order to the contrary. The Personal Representative should consult with their attorney on this question and can seek instructions from the Court before proceeding.

Yes. If the house is still in probate, the ordinary and usual way to sell is for the personal representative (administrator) to petition the court for approval of the sale. Consent of all 6 not required. If it already is owned of record by 6 owners, they can file a suit for partition, and the court will order sale.
