Sale of Property-Power of Attorney

I am located in Alabama and wish to give a power of attorney to a relative to act on my behalf in sale of a property in which I have partial ownership in Georgia. Do I use Alabama or Georgia form of Power of Attorney?

Re: Sale of Property-Power of Attorney

If the owner of the property is located in Georgia and the property to be sold is in Georgia, Georgia. But I would consider using both if there is a difference.

If you would like to discuss any issues further, please feel free to contact my office. My contact information is below. Thank you.

The foregoing is general information only, not specific legal advice. No attorney/client relation has been created or should be implied.

All you have to do is reference that the power of attorney "shall be effective as to property of the undersigned, no matter where located."
