Questions answered? Let's get started!

This is a LIMITED power of attorney for real property. What is a limited power of attorney? A "limited power of attorney" gives the agent authority to conduct a specific act. For example, a person might use a limited power of attorney to sell and/or purchase a home in another state by delegating authority to another person to handle the transaction locally. Such a power could be "limited" to selling and/or purchasing a home/property or to other specified acts. This form includes a "Special Instructions" section where the principal can further define or limit the Agent's powers.

When the Agent is authorized to transfer interest in real property by (a power of attorney), it (shall be signed, acknowledged, and certified as provided in section 5301.01 of the Revised Code.) (1337.01)

(No deed executed by a person acting for another, under a power of attorney, acknowledged, and recorded, is invalid or defective because he, instead of his principal, is named in such deed as such attorney as grantor; nor because his name, as such attorney, is subscribed to such deed, instead of the name of his principal; nor because the certificate of acknowledgment, instead of setting forth that the deed was acknowledged by the principal, by his attorney, sets forth that it was acknowledged by the person who executed it, as such attorney. All such deeds shall be as valid and effectual, in all respects, within the authority conferred by such powers of attorney, as if they had been executed by the principals of such attorneys, in person.) (1337.03)

(A power of attorney for the conveyance, mortgage, or lease of an interest in real property must be recorded in the office of the county recorder of the county in which such property is situated, previous to the recording of a deed, mortgage, or lease by virtue of such power of attorney.) (1337.04)

I'm typing along and suddenly I can't fit anything more into the page and there's plenty of room. This is my 2nd time using this site. No problem the first time years ago. Now it's an issue, looks like I'll need a typewriter to finish the form. Where do I find a typewriter?!! I can't complete the legal description!

Thanks for your feedback Nora. If you are unable to find a typewriter you can always do as the guide suggests and use the included exhibit page.

The Quitclaim deed form was fine. Unfortunately, all I wanted to accomplish was to transfer property held in my name into my trust, but I could not any wording on the information you provided on how to accomplish this. It was not a sale, just a transfer from me to me as trustee.

Paid the money, but never received any information; not even an email saying they couldn't find anything.
