This document creates a durable, limited power of attorney for the sale of Colorado real estate. A power of attorney is a legal document delegating authority from one person to another. In the document, the maker of the power of attorney (the "principal") grants the right to act on the maker's behalf as that person's Attorney-in-fact.

Attorney-in-fact means a person granted authority to act for the principal in a power of attorney, regardless of whether the person is known as an attorney-in-fact or agent, or by some other term.

This limited power of attorney grants your agent the power to execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all documents, and to do any and all things on behalf of the principal, including, but not limited to, the execution of deeds, notes, mortgages, deeds of trusts, personal guarantees and any other instrument or agreement of any kind or nature whatsoever in connection therewith, and affecting the SALE of a specific real property. It includes a "special instructions" section which can be used to further limit or define the powers given.

An agent whether or not your ancestor, spouse, or descendant MAY NOT use your property to benefit the agent or a person to whom the agent owes an obligation of support unless you include that authority in the special instructions. Your agent's authority is limited to acting on your behalf exclusively regarding the property described.

This power of attorney takes effect immediately upon execution. This is when the principal signs or directs another to sign. (A signature on a power of attorney is presumed to be genuine if the principal acknowledges the signature before a notary public) 15-14-705. Execution of power of attorney.

[(1) A power of attorney terminates when:
(a) The principal dies;
(c) The principal revokes the power of attorney;
(d) The power of attorney provides that it terminates;] [ 15-14-710.]
This power of states that it shall terminate immediately upon the satisfactory closing of the identified property.

I was a little nervous about doing this, but it was very simple. I was thrilled that I could use the sheet that helped me fill out the form. That made it easy. I did like that you knew what the charge was going to be in the beginning, not like the other websites.

Easy to use and get forms I needed. Corporate need for an invoice/receipt could be a bit easier - have to print screen to get any info.

Process is well laid out, clear and concise. Check out is easy. Recommendations: * Assign names to the downloadable files that are meaningful, such as: WARRANTY DEED instead of the useless and cryptic 1420490866F11417.pdf. * Provide a ONE BUTTON DOWNLOAD for all forms ordered. It's aggravating to have to click on each of the 20 documents and download them individually.

I was looking for something this website does not offer. Very dissapointed.

I recently purchased online DIY legal forms, and I must say I was thoroughly impressed. The documents provided were accurate, comprehensive, and precisely what I needed. The accompanying guide was clear, instructive, and really bridged the gap for someone like me who isn't well-versed in legal jargon. What stood out the most, however, was the inclusion of the example. It served as a practical reference and made the entire process so much more approachable. Being able to see a filled-out sample made all the difference. Overall, this product has been invaluable in helping me navigate legal processes on my own.
