Hi there,
I see that you haven't made a payment for the question, but I'm going to assist you a little. If you want to ask a follow-up question, please make the required payment, even if it is R150 or R200.
You would need to get your mom to sign a power of attorney in your favour, authorising you to sign a lease and manage the property on her behalf.
