∙ 15y agoUnless state law addresses the subject; generally anyone can be appointed to hold the power of attorney for someone else. It all depends on who your mother in-law trusts enough to hold this power. Powers of Attorney can be 'limited' (i.e. - restricted to a specific instance or circumstance) or 'general' (i.e. - you can act in any circumstance as if you were the other person). They are legal documents and must be carefully drawn up and the signatures witnessed - consult an attorney or legal aid office.

IF the POA document is "Durable", and it granted you the power to transfer your mother's real estate, and it was executed by your mother when she had legal capacity, then you may be able to make that transfer. However, you should seek the advice of an attorney to discuss your options. If the transfer isn't proper it won't vest title in you and your sister and that situation may be costly to correct when you try to sell the property at some future date.
