Why Real Estate Closings Still Break Down Over a Single Document

POAs are intended to help transactions move forward. They come into play when a seller is overseas, a spouse is unavailable, or a trusted agent needs to act on someone’s behalf. In practice, however, they often bring everything to a halt.
