Must a Notarial Record be created for a notarization involving an attorney in fact signing a Document of Conveyance on behalf of a principal?

Yes. An attorney in fact is a person who has been legally designated to transact business in the name of a principal. An attorney in fact is not necessarily an attorney at law, but an agent of the principal. A power of attorney document is created and executed conferring a named individual as attorney in fact. For example, in a transaction conveying real property, the attorney in fact would sign the Document of Conveyance for the principal, who may be unavailable to sign due to travel or medical reasons.
