We live in Maryland State and we like to our relative to deal with buying residential real property for us in the California State. We like to execute Power of Attorney assigning our relative as our attorney.
Q1) Could we use Maryland State power attorney or California State one, sign it and Notarize in Maryland State and send it to California. Is there a special type of power of attorney for this purpose?

Q2) Can both I and my spouse sign on the same power of attorney do we need to send separately two powers of attorney tot he same person as we like to property in both our names.

Your help answering these question is highly appreciated.

I have recieved information from a friend that is incarcerated that he would like me to pretty much run his music company. In which he has included a Spsecial Power Of Attorney And, A Contingency Contract. I have read and understand both of these forms. Still, i’m not 100% sure of the creditibility and, legality of this information/request. Please reply informing me of my best way of going on about proceeding into this position.
