not sure what to do on the quitdeed form

the grantor is the owner of the property, regardless of power of attorney. when you sign a document, you use the poa designation.

I understand that the grantor is the owner of the land, but what do you mean by using, "the poa designation?" After taking a look at a Quitdeed form, there isn't very many lines to fill in: grantor, grantee, reason(s), etc. ????? confused, but very appreciative of your help on this inquiry.

Hi cindy

In place of the "grantor's name" you will have to write the person's name who is transferring the property. The person who has the power of attorney does not need to write his/her name in that blank.

Thanks.

Sorry but I am now more confused then before, but I am sure it is totally my fault for not understanding your directions. Let me try again: If the POA is the individual who is doing the Quitdeed paperwork (not the actual owner).....does the POA name OR the actual owners name go in the space where it calls for the GRANTOR? I am assuming it is the POA's name, and not the actual owner of the land, but I am just checking to see so it is not done incorrectly by the POA. This is all new to me, but seems simple except for this one concern. Is there somewhere where I can see an example of a Quitdeed done by a POA on line that I can then follow?Thanks again ahead of time, Cindy

Hi Cindy,

The actual owner's name will be written in the space where it calls for the Grantor. It will be better if you could contact an attorney and take his help to fill out the deed.

Thanks

the grantor is the owner. all you are doing with power of attorney is signing in place of that person(s). your assumption is incorrect - you cannot be noted as the grantor of the deed, because all you are doing is acting in the stead of the actual owner/grantor.

james made a great point. that's what lawyers are for - to render legal advice. when you poll a group of anonymous people you are quite likely to be confused, because you'll get a couple of reasonable answers, a couple of unreasonable answers and who knows what else.
