Was your father of sound mind when he signed the deed? Just because you have power of attorney doesn't mean your father gave up all of his rights as to control his own affairs. Regardless, as a probate attorney I would definitely have taken a very hard look at the transfer made 8 days before death. Maybe those were your father's carefully thought-out wishes. Maybe he was unduly influenced by your sister. Who knows?
