If you cannot monitor an upcoming real estate sale or purchase because of an illness or trip or you prefer to hire a professional lawyer who will oversee negotiations on your behalf and sign the necessary documentation in your name, fill out a Massachusetts Real Estate Power of Attorney Form .
This document will allow the person named in it to sell, buy, or lease real property after they received instructions from the individual who signed the power of attorney. Make sure you clearly outline the actions of a legal representative - for example, you can ask them to manage one transaction only or handle the signing of the agreement and future communication with the tenant.
Additionally, the laws of the state demand the principal to sign the form in the presence of a notary public and two witnesses who cannot benefit from the authorization - if you fail to follow this requirement, the document will be deemed invalid and all the deals made on its basis will be nullified.
