Can one spouse sell the house without the other in Dewees Island?
One spouse generally cannot sell a jointly owned Dewees Island house without the other's signature, since South Carolina deed and contract requirements need both owners to consent unless a court order says otherwise. A power of attorney can allow one spouse to sign on the other's behalf if that document is already in place. Brian Beatty checks title and any existing authority before listing a Dewees Island property held by two owners.
