Can my aunt's male friend that has power of attorney do a quit claim deed on her property to himself, if she is not alert and oriented to sign it?

As your aunt's male friend has power of attorney, he can take decision on her behalf and transfer property in his own name.

Hi Cindy,

Welcome to Mortgagefit forum.

I hope your aunt recovers soon from the condition she is in.

Your aunt's friend needs to have durable or springing power of attorney.

With a durable or springing power of attorney, your aunt's friend would be able to act on her behalf in this condition where she is not alert and oriented to sign it.

DPOA and SPOA provide authority to Principal's (your aunt) agent (aunt's friend) to take decision on principal's behalf.
