Yes. It is possible that the owner has turned the responsibility for this function over to an attorney-in-fact but they should notify you. Acting under a power of attorney, the attorney-in-fact has sweeping powers over the property and assets of the principal. However, you should insist that the attorney in fact make the request in writing, signed as attorney in fact for (principal's name) and dated, and attaches a copy of the POA to that written request. You could also send a letter to the owner telling her/him that you have been instructed to make checks payable to another party. You could follow that up with a phone call.

It should be noted that you need to try to make certain the POA is legitimate. That may be difficult since you are not an attorney. If you can't then you should continue to make your checks payable to the owner. You can ask the owner to notify you in writing that the person claiming to be the attorney in fact is legitimate. I cannot stress too strongly that you need to cover yourself in this situation to make certain your rent payments are not being stolen. Most importantly, make certain you pay by check and keep copies of your checks with any correspondence from the owner and the attorney in fact, along with a copy of the POA.
