Legal help needed

Hi
We will be buying a lake front lot in another state and we would like to give power of authority to our Mother-in-law to do the closing for us since she lives in that state. How do we do that? The loan is in our names..all we want her to do is sign on our behalf at the closing.
Is there any form that we have to fill in or do we have to contact an attorney to do it?

Thanks for any info.

    goal69,

    Glad to meet you.

    You could use a Limited Power of Attorney for this transaction only. This would give your mother in law power to sign on your behalf for the closing only and so stipulate this in the Limited Power of Attorney paperwork.

    Normally if this is a formal closing the paperwork can be sent to you and you sign in front of a Notary Public, wherever you are. Then return the paperwork to whoever is taking care of the transaction.

    Thanks a lot for the info. I found the form online and will get it notarized as the instruction says.
