A power of attorney for the right to use an apartment is issued by the principal (owner) to the attorney. In the future, he can use the property at his own discretion, but taking into account the opinion of the owner and the provisions of the power of attorney: it will indicate which actions can be taken and which cannot.
To issue a power of attorney without the right of alienation, several conditions are important:
- Age of majority of the principal and attorney, legal capacity. If one of the parties is between 14 and 18 years old, the document is drawn up with parental consent. Representatives may act independently on behalf of minor children under 14 years of age.
- The right of ownership of real estate, for the disposal of which a power of attorney is issued.

General power of attorney for real estate
To transfer powers to carry out activities with property belonging to a certain person, a power of attorney is issued. The document allows the holder to participate in property transactions on behalf of the owner.
What is a general power of attorney for real estate?
The legal system of the Russian Federation provides for three main types of documents:
- One-time: to perform a single transaction on behalf of the owner
- Special: for carrying out several actions related to property
- General: drawn up for the complete transfer of rights to dispose of real estate
By law, the right to sell can be transferred after signing the third type of document. The first two types are drawn up when it is necessary to transfer part of the rights relating to the collection of documents related to real estate.

To avoid difficulties, the writer of the paper must take a responsible approach to filling out each of its parts.
Types of powers of attorney
The principal can issue any power of attorney depending on what he needs:
- One-time. Allows you to perform only one action. Immediately after this it is canceled.
- General. Gives the attorney complete freedom of action to dispose of the property; it is enough to indicate in it “without the right of alienation.”
- Special. It is drawn up when you need to make a list of similar actions. Valid until obligations are fulfilled or expiration.
Legal advice: if you need another person to “look after” the apartment legally, it is better to immediately issue a general power of attorney, making a note on it that it has no right of alienation (sale, exchange, gift).

Duration of the power of attorney
If the power of attorney does not indicate a validity period, it is valid for one year from the date of signing (Article 186 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation). The principal has the right to determine the term independently, as well as cancel it at any time.
For how long can a general power of attorney be given in Russia?
He is obliged to notify the authorized person of the decision, as well as all third parties known to him who entered into legal relations with him through a representative.
If a third party, who was not properly notified of the termination of the power of attorney and should not have known about such termination, entered into legal relations with the representative under the power of attorney, the rights and obligations arise for the principal.
Thus, setting the validity period of a power of attorney until it is revoked by the principal is a rather controversial way to terminate the power of attorney and quite difficult.
If the representative is provided with a wide range of powers with an unlimited number of persons, it is practically impossible to notify all counterparties, which makes it impossible to terminate the power of attorney.
A buyer who does not re-register a car after signing a general contract also risks it.
The seller can revoke the document at any time and take the vehicle; in the event of his death, the right to own the car will be inherited by the heirs.
If the buyer dies, the contract becomes invalid and the vehicle returns to the seller.
For real estate The general agreement for real estate gives the attorney the following rights:
- prepare and execute any documentation on behalf of the principal (lease agreement, donation agreement, purchase and sale agreement, exchange agreement);
- resolve all bureaucratic issues and organizational problems;
- personally participate in transactions and sign.
Often such a notarial document is issued for a specific property with an address, a clear description of the apartment, house, and information about state registration.

How to cancel a power of attorney for the right to use an apartment?
Cancellation of a power of attorney is carried out in the same form as registration. The review must be certified by a notary. The principal can contact any notary office, and not just the one in which it was registered. The notary will still check the document through the register of powers of attorney and then certify the revocation. The attorney must be notified of this in advance.
Also, a power of attorney without the right to sell an apartment is canceled for other reasons:
- Expiration date.
- Death of the principal or attorney.
- Refusal of the attorney's obligations under the power of attorney.
- Compliance with the terms of the power of attorney.
Important! Cancellation is also possible if the attorney is declared bankrupt, if this deprives him of the right to represent the interests of other persons.

When can a power of attorney be invalidated?

Invalidity occurs if it is signed by an incapacitated principal, a child 14-18 years old, without parental consent, or under the influence of threats.
In practice, this is extremely rare.

I have been renting out apartments to people for a long time. There are problems with the HOA due to receipts. Do I have to issue a power of attorney so that the tenant can handle all issues? Or will she be accepted on the basis of a rental agreement?
