Nevada special power of attorney signed and recorded so an agent can sign a deed for the owner
Registered & bonded Nevada Document Preparation Service

Can’t be there to sign? Give one person authority for that one property.

Out of the country, in hospital, deployed, or simply unable to make the signing: a special power of attorney lets someone you name sign for you on a specific Nevada property. For it to work at the county, it has to be recorded along with the deed — a signed copy in a drawer will not do. We prepare it for $250, the same as a deed, and record it with the transfer.

What it costs

  • Special power of attorney prepared — $250
  • Deed signed under it, with Declaration of Value — $250
  • Same-day electronic recording of a document we prepare — $50
  • Copy of your last recorded deed — $30
  • Revocation of a recorded power of attorney — $250
  • Notarization — $15 per signature, Clark County partner notary
  • County recording fee — $37–$43, at cost
  • Transfer tax on the deed — per county rate, unless an exemption applies
The power of attorney and the deed are two separate recordings, so a typical transfer signed by an agent is $500 in preparation plus each county fee. You get the total in writing before anything is drafted.
Start To Finish

What happens after you send the form, in five steps.

No office visit. Here is the whole process, from the moment you send your details to the recorded documents landing in your inbox.

1. You send the details

Ten minutes on the intake form, or a phone call. The property, the person you are authorising, and exactly what they need to sign for you.

2. You get a price in writing

We read it, ask anything missing, then send a written disclosure, a contract naming the total and one payment link. Nothing is drafted until you say yes.

3. We prepare the documents

The power of attorney naming the property and the authority you are giving, plus the deed itself if the transfer is happening now.

4. You sign before a notary

Sign wherever you are, including outside the country before a US consular officer. Your agent signs the deed separately, as your attorney-in-fact.

5. Recorded together

We record the power of attorney with the deed, so the county has the authority on file. The recorded copies come back to you by email.

A power of attorney for Nevada property has to be recorded to work.

A special power of attorney authorises one named person to act for you on one specific matter, such as signing a deed for a named Nevada property. Where it is used for real estate, the county needs the authority on record: the power of attorney is recorded together with the deed the agent signs, in the county where the property sits. A signed copy that is never recorded does not put the agent’s authority on the public record, which is where a buyer, a lender or a title company looks. TruPoint prepares the special power of attorney for $250, the same as a deed, plus the county recording fee of $37 to $43 and $50 for same-day electronic recording.

This is narrow authority on purpose. A special power of attorney covers the one property and the one job you name, and ends when that job is done or on the date you set. It is different from a general power of attorney, which hands over broad control of your affairs.

If One Of These Is You

You own the property, you just cannot be at the signing.

You are overseas when the sale closes

Travelling, working abroad, or back in your home country. Your agent signs here while you sign the authority at a US embassy or consulate.

You are in hospital or in care

A family member can sign the deed for you on the one property, without anyone taking over the rest of your affairs.

You are deployed

Service members closing on a Las Vegas or Reno property while stationed elsewhere. Authority limited to that property, ending when the job is done.

Two owners, one cannot travel

Co-owners in different states or countries. One signs directly, the other through an agent under this document.

Investors closing several deals

A property manager or partner handling signings on named properties, with the authority on the county record where a title company can see it.

You already gave someone a power of attorney

If it was never recorded, the county has nothing on file for that property. We prepare one naming the property so the deed can record.

We are a document preparation service, not a law firm. We explain what each document does and prepare the one you direct; deciding who should hold authority over your property, or whether a power of attorney suits your situation, is legal advice and belongs with an attorney.

Questions Owners Ask

What Nevada owners actually ask, answered plainly.

How much does a special power of attorney cost in Nevada?

$250 to prepare, the same as a deed, plus the county recording fee of $37 to $43. Same-day electronic recording is $50. If the deed is being signed under it, that is another $250 and its own recording fee.

Does a power of attorney have to be recorded to sign a deed?

For real property it has to reach the county. The power of attorney is recorded with the deed your agent signs, in the county where the property sits, so the authority sits on the public record where a buyer, lender or title company can see it.

Can I sign it while I am out of the country?

Yes. Sign before a US embassy or consular officer, or before a notary in that country where the county will accept it. We email the documents with instructions and submit once the signed copy reaches us.

What is the difference between a special and a general power of attorney?

A special power of attorney covers one named property and one named job, and ends when that job is done or on the date you set. A general power of attorney hands over broad control of your affairs. We prepare the special one for $250.

Who can I name as my agent?

An adult you trust: a spouse, an adult child, a business partner or a property manager. They sign as your attorney-in-fact, and their authority is limited to what the document says.

How do I cancel it once the sale is done?

A revocation is prepared and recorded the same way, for $250 plus the county fee, so the cancellation sits on the record next to the original. Many special powers also end on their own once the named job is complete or the end date passes.

Can my agent sell the property to themselves?

Only if the document says so in plain terms. Tell us what authority you want given and what you want excluded, and it is written that way. What powers you should give is legal advice, and for that you would speak with an attorney.

How fast can this be prepared and recorded?

Most documents are drafted within one business day of your approved quote. We submit electronically the same day the signed copies reach us, and the county typically completes recording within the same day to three business days.

I already signed a power of attorney years ago. Can my agent use it?

If it was never recorded, the county has nothing on file for that property, and a title company will usually not accept the signing. Whether an existing document still works for this transfer is a question for an attorney or the title company; if you need a new one naming the property, that is $250.

Does my agent pay the transfer tax or the fees?

No. The charges are the same as any other transfer: our preparation fee, the county recording fee per document, and the transfer tax on the deed unless an exemption applies. Who pays is between you and your agent.

Can one power of attorney cover several properties?

It can name more than one property, and it is recorded in each county where those properties sit, with a recording fee per county. Tell us the parcels at intake and the quote reflects it.

Do you speak Vietnamese?

Yes. Quinnie is a native English and Vietnamese speaker, so intake, questions and signing instructions can all be handled in either language. Spanish is available through a partner.

Authority for one property, recorded where it counts.

$250 to prepare, the same as a deed, with the county fee at cost and recording handled with the transfer. Send the form and you will have a written quote before anything is drafted.
