2. Do you have to sign anything to become a power of attorney in Ohio? Mother had my sister and I become her's. We never signed anything!
3. Mom had a life estate created for her home and had my name and my sister's name mentioned. No real estate transfer.(since then my sister had her name removed because she doesn't feel comfortable ) Now the taxes come with my name and mom's with the words "life estate " next to her's. I will gladly take care of things, but it is legal to have someone become responsible for a parent's property without ever being officially made aware of the possible financial burden. What if the child was blatantly not interested, or due to their own financial situation wasn't able to take on any more responsibility.
