A Louisiana real estate power of attorney is a document used to authorize an agent to buy, sell, or otherwise manage real estate on behalf of a principal. Such authority must be expressly granted in the power of attorney, although the specific property does not need to be identified in the document.[1]

Signing Requirements

Only the principal is required to sign the document in order to execute it properly. However, the form should also be notarized and/or witnessed to establish its validity.[2]

Recording

Powers of attorney and any other documents used in the transfer of real estate ownership must be recorded with the clerk of court in the parish where the property is located.[3]
