Good advice when issuing a power of attorney
This is usually worth considering when buying or selling real estate or when you are in need of an accountant or a lawyer.
Quite often, it can be useful and time-saving to issue a power of attorney to a third party, who can then act on your behalf.
The process itself is simple and fast, and alone in and around Alanya there are almost ten different notary offices to choose from.
These are the most important issues to remember when issuing a power of attorney:
-
Only issue powers of attorney to persons that you trust and that you know who they are.
-
Make sure that the power of attorney is specific and for your exact purpose only. When selling your property via power of attorney, the exact registration and location must be specified. When selling a car, the licence plate and registration must be specified and so on.
-
If it serves a purpose, consider making a time-limited power of attorney.
-
Use a professional translator whom you understand and who will translate the entire and complete power of attorney.
-
Ask questions when in doubt. Do not just trust what you are being told.
-
Get a copy of the complete power of attorney; it is usually a couple of pages.
-
Use an online tool to translate the power of attorney, just to double check that everything you have been told is correct.
-
Finally, remember that any power of attorney that you have issued easily can be withdrawn again.
