A. A guardian of the property must keep safely the property of

his ward. He must not permit any unnecessary waste or destruction

of the real property, nor make any sale of such property without the

order of the court, but must so far as it is in his power, maintain

the same, with its buildings and appurtenances, out of the income or

other property of the estate, and deliver it to the ward or the

successors of the ward at the close of his guardianship, in as good

condition as he received it.

B. A guardian of the property, in relation to powers conferred

pursuant to the provisions of the Oklahoma Guardianship and

Conservatorship Act, shall act as a fiduciary and shall perform,

diligently and in good faith, as a prudent person would in managing

his own property, not with regard to speculation but with regard to

conservation and growth, and the specific duties and powers assigned

by the court.
