Why power of attorney plays a significant role in buying a property?

 


A power of attorney (POA) is a legal document that allows the principal (the person granting the POA) to formally designate an agent (the person receiving the POA) to carry out specific actions on the principal's behalf. We refer to anyone who uses a Power of Attorney Dubai to represent the principal as an agent, not a real estate agent. In private matters, business dealings, financial issues, and other circumstances, the agent can speak for the principal. In a power of attorney UAE, often known as a POA, a grantor or principal designates and authorizes a grantee to carry out a specific range of tasks on their behalf. The Grantee is authorized to speak for the Grantor in commercial and personal matters. The Grantor may delegate authority to a reliable agent to act on their behalf in a real estate transaction.

While a POA may be granted for a particular objective, such as marketing a particular property, it may also be granted for a broad range of objectives. However, this is typically done only among close relatives. Unless the POA specifies otherwise, the POA shall take effect upon legalization. A POA may expire at the Grantor's death, upon the Grantor's loss of mental ability, or, if necessary, at any moment by the Grantor. A POA must be notarized in Dubai by a notary public who is a member of the Dubai Courts. If the POA is granted outside of the UAE, it must be signed in front of a local Notary Public. Following legalization at the UAE Embassy abroad, the POA must then be attested by the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The Dubai Land Department (DLD) advises and strongly urges the original parties to be present when finalizing the documentation for the real estate transaction, particularly during the sale of a real estate property in the emirate. To stop fraudulent activity is the main motivation. However, given that the majority of Dubai property investors are based outside of the UAE, they might not find this to be entirely practical. The POA starts to take effect at this point. What specifications ought to be in a POA? A POA should typically be recognized in the United Arab Emirates. Either Arabic, English, or both languages may be used in the POA document.

A legal translation in Arabic should be legalized at the UAE Notary Public if the POA document was written in English. If there are any discrepancies in the translation, the Arabic version shall always take precedence.
