A person cannot gift/sale/transfer to himself. There has to be donor and donee, seller and buyer, transferer and transferee. Principal cannot executed GPA giving power to Attorney to gift property of herself, power can be given to gift other person but not to attorney himself.

there is a procedure where you can file an application before the sub registrar to visit your house and get it registered, but in the said application you have to mention the reasons for which your parents are not able to visit the registration office. There will be extra charges for the same.

yes, a general power of attorney can be made for the purpose and the same can be registered. don't see it as a challenge at all they should name a person correctly as he/she would act on their behalf and get the sale executed
