A West Virginia real estate power of attorney helps a principal assign authority to a designated agent so they can act on their behalf when they’re unavailable, whether traveling, sick, or otherwise can’t participate in real estate transactions. This document ensures the seamless execution of tasks like managing properties and executing rental agreements.
The principal maintains control over the powers they grant, as they can impose restrictions on tasks they don’t want the agent to complete. The principal also retains autonomy because they can revoke their assigned powers whenever they see fit.
