The IRS doesn't pause for medical emergencies. Your 1031 exchange deadlines keep running whether you're in the hospital or not.

Without a durable POA that specifically covers 1031 exchanges, your exchange could fail — and your deferred gains become immediately taxable. On a large exchange, that's catastrophic.

The good news? It's entirely preventable. It just has to be in the document.

Choosing a power of attorney isn't just about paperwork — it's about trust.

The person you name may one day manage your finances, property, business interests, and legal matters if you're unable to act for yourself. That decision deserves careful thought.

A good agent is responsible, emotionally steady under pressure, and ready to act when it matters most. And just as important: revisit your choices over time as life and relationships change.

A medical emergency can create legal and financial problems overnight — especially during a 1031 exchange.

Deadlines keep running even if you're hospitalized or incapacitated. Without the proper power of attorney in place, no one may have the authority to sign documents, identify replacement properties, or coordinate the transaction on your behalf.

One missing document can turn deferred gains into immediate tax liability.

Planning ahead means protecting both your family and your investments.

Your will only activates at death. A stroke, a serious accident, any period of incapacity — and your family hits a wall.

Without a durable power of attorney, they may not be able to access your accounts, manage your property, or pay your bills without going to court first.

If you don't have one, get one.

Most people don't find out their power of attorney is useless until it's too late.

Banks can and do reject them. A generic form or outdated document won't cut it in California.

Your POA needs to explicitly cover real estate, banking, trust operations, and more. Anything less is a risk you can't afford.

When there’s no plan, the court steps in.

A conservatorship can freeze accounts, delay decisions, and cost thousands—just to get started. And once it’s in place, the oversight doesn’t stop.

A Durable Power of Attorney is simpler, faster, and far more affordable—often done before any crisis happens.

Plan ahead. Stay in control.

A standard power of attorney becomes void the moment you're incapacitated.

That's exactly when you need it most.

A durable power of attorney stays in effect. Your agent can access accounts, pay bills, manage property — no court involved.

Without it, your family hits a wall. Accounts frozen. Bills unpaid. Property unmanaged.

One word — durable — makes all the difference.
