(she is in a home) daughter has not yet finalised Power of Attorney. Should the house have been put up for sale and taking offers without this Power of Attorney as it is at least very unfair to us tofind out (after paying out for a Survey, etc) that it will be another few weeks before the seller in a position to proceed! We went ahead cos we thought this would be a quick transaction. I don't think Power of Attorney takes long anyway but who can we blame for this hold up?
