In Kansas, a Limited Power of Attorney (LPOA) for the sale of real estate is a legal document that grants a designated person (the agent or attorney-in-fact) the authority to handle specific matters related to the sale of real property on behalf of the principal (the person granting the power). This power can include signing documents, handling transactions, and making decisions related to the sale. However, the statutes and legal requirements can be complex and are subject to change, so it's important to consult a legal professional for the most current and applicable advice.

General guidelines regarding a Limited Power of Attorney for real estate in Kansas:

Written Document: The power of attorney must be in writing. It should clearly state the principal's name, the agent's name, and the specific powers granted.

Durability: This document shall continue in effect during any subsequent disability, incompetency, or incapacity of the principal in accordance with the provisions of K.S.A. 58-650, et al.,

Acknowledgment: The document typically needs to be signed by the principal and should be notarized. This is particularly important for real estate transactions, as a notarized document is usually required for recording the deed or other documents in county records.
Specificity: Since it is a limited power of attorney, the document should specify exactly what real estate is involved and what powers the agent has regarding the sale of that property. This can include the power to negotiate and accept offers, execute documents, and handle closing procedures.
Recording: In many cases, the power of attorney document must be recorded with the county recorder’s office in the county where the property is located, especially if it will be used for executing deeds or other documents that will be recorded.

Effective and Termination: It is intended that this power of attorney is to become effective immediately upon execution and terminates upon the completion of the sale of the property.

Legal Capacity: The principal must be of sound mind and have the legal capacity to execute the power of attorney at the time it is signed.
Compliance with Other Laws: Ensure that the document complies with other relevant Kansas laws and any specific requirements of the county where the property is located.

Forms used, created quitclaim deed that the county accepted without a second look (turns out they see deeds.com forms regularly via erecording and in person). Will be back for any real estate related forms I need and they carry. Will always be my first stop. Also, will use erecording next time, mad I didn't see it this time.

Sorry to hear that your expectations were missed. Your order has been canceled. We do hope that you find something more suitable to your expectations elsewhere. Do keep in mind that purchasing legal forms should not be an exploratory endeavor.

Process was easy. The instructions for TOD and a sample completed form was very helpful. E-recording of deed saved a trip to the county building and well worth the very reasonable charge.
