When you are buying, selling, renting out your property (Private or HDB) and would like to like to entrust someone else to act on your behalf, you can sign a Power of Attorney.
Where the Property has more than one (1) legal owner/purchaser, the POA prepared will state clearly that any monies due to the legal owners/purchasers would be issued in the joint names of ALL legal owners/purchasers (i.e. where there are two (2) legal owners of the Property (for example, A and B), all monies due to them would be issued in the name of “A AND B” only).
