I know someone that is in a nursing home, still has a mortgage on property. Someone else has Power of Attorney for her personal business. This person (the POA), wants to write "gift" checks to family members. Shouldn't the first priority be to pay off the balance of the mortgage on her property before writing checks out to family members? I feel this should be paid while she has the money available so it is taken care of before she dies and her money has been used for expenses (or gifts to family members). Please advise. Thank you.
