<p class="MsoNormal">Greetings All,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">PR was recently appointed to administer her sister’s estate. PR lives out of state and wants to appoint a local friend to facilitate the sale of estate real property (i.e., execute a limited power of attorney).
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This is the first time I’ve come across this situation with a PR, and I’m having trouble finding any authority for or against it. Any and all guidance would be greatly appreciated.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Very best,<o:p></o:p></p>
