 I have a property for which I have a power of attorney. With my mother’s health deteriorating, I would like to transfer the property under my name. I went to Ludhiana, Punjab 5 years ago and transferred the property under my mother’s name after my father’s death. The POA is irrevocable, but someone said if my mother passes away, it will be null and void.  

I would like to get that done ASAP. My brothers and sister do not see an issue transferring it to my name until we sell and then divide our shares.

Please let me know how much this will cost? I have the registry and intkal papers with me.

The cost of transferring the property to your name will depend on the value of the property, the jurisdiction in which it is located, and the applicable laws in that jurisdiction. In some jurisdictions, such as India, there are stamp duty and registration fees that must be paid in order to legally transfer the property to your name. You may also need to pay a lawyer to review the necessary documents and ensure that the transfer is done in accordance with local law. It is best to consult a local lawyer to get an accurate quote for the cost of transferring the property.

This could prove to be a bit more complicated than transferring the property title out of your dad's name to your mom's name. You mom is still alive and you hold the POA for her. You'll need to get a court order I believe in order to do this. I would see the advice of an attorney while your mom is still alive and you can do this. Otherwise, you'll need to wait until she dies and follow her wishes in her will or living trust.

General power of attorneys are always revokable. If your mother is willing to give that property to you later then it's better to have a will deed which is stating that the property should transfer to you. POA has any value only if it is registered with revenue department as per court rules in India. Normally a POA is enough for such a transaction, as in case your siblings have no objections Even though a will deed is far more better than a POA.  Making a Will Deed doesn't cost much. Say a 5000 rupees or so.

If you have power of attorney, you have the rights to sell a property. But better consult with anybody in the registration office and document writers. They will help you to come out of this problem.

In my country, the property needs to be countersigned by the other siblings if they are willing to put it under your name. Since you have an attorney, then you can ask him or her to assist you with this concern. It needs to be done if that's what you wanted to happen.

In order to transfer the property into your name, you will need to obtain a transfer deed or sale deed from a local lawyer in Ludhiana. This document will need to be prepared, signed, and registered with the local sub-registrar. The cost of this process will depend on the lawyer's fees, and any stamp duty or registration fees that may be required. It is advisable to seek legal advice to ensure that all the necessary steps are taken and that the transfer is done in accordance with the law.

It may be a cost of $5,000 to $10,000 to transfer the property to your name.

The Power of Attorney says that the property may be property of the power of attorney, but the property may also be property of the mother's health when she is not able to use it. According to the registry, the property may be worth $100,000.

First, the search will enable you to compare the details on the title deed with those on the ground. Are the names on the title the same as those in the land
