Logistics of Long-Distance closing with a POA

[Aubrey Prado]

Hello!

My husband and I are supposed to close on our next rental property this coming week, as well as close on a refi for our most recent BRRR. My husband is out of the country, so I have a POA for the upcoming closings. Unfortunately, both title companies will need to have the original POA in hand to close the transactions. So my question is: when I am doing a distance closing with a mobile notary, will the notary need to see the original POA (effectively forcing the original doc to need to be mailed back to me in between closings), or can the notary notarize the closing documents that I have signed for both myself and my husband using just a copy? (this would mean the original can be mailed from one title company to the other without needing to come back to me in the process). TIA
