To buy a property in China I have been advised to give power of attorney to a local proxy. Obviously this requires that one locates a local in whom one can place a huge amount of trust. In my case I trust my employee Lua very much, and have chosen to grant the power to one of her close relatives.
The power of attorney must be in Chinese, of course. The initial draft, translated, of the one I have been looking at is as follows:
* make decisions of sale price,
* sign for buy/sale agreements
* assist buyer(stephen) to do all paper work
* assist buyer to deal with the mortgage
* receive rent and pay tax on ur behalf
* all other aspects which relate to the above
My initial view is that 'make decisions of sale price' is not only grammatically dubious, but also unnecessary.
