Unlicensed Property Manager Sign Lease As Agent For My LLC?

[Larry H.]

Hello.  I just recently discovered the biggerpockets.com podcast and instantly became hooked. 

My wife and I have a LLC in Louisiana, but we live in San Antonio, Texas. We just purchased 2 four-plexes in Louisiana and my father-in-law is managing the properties for us. Is there a way he can legally sign lease agreements as an agent for our LLC without being licensed and without adding him to the LLC? I looked into doing a power of attorney, but I feel like that grants him more access than I really want him to have. I only want him to sign lease agreements and possibly appear for us in an eviction hearing.
