[WSBAPT] Deed Acknowledgement as Individual v. Representative Capacity

[Thomas Hackett]

Colleagues-

I'm looking at a recorded deed where a property was conveyed by a husband
as the agent for his wife under a power of attorney to himself. The
signature of husband as agent was acknowledged and notarized in an
individual capacity, not his representative capacity as agent. Wife has
since passed away. With this defect, it seems that the conveyance of the
property is ineffective. I'm interested to know if others agree.

Thanks in advance for insights.
