ON line Notary

[Jay Hinrichs]

Just did my second on line Notary as seller..  This is a nice service .  I understand most East coast and mid west sellers and buyers insist on going to the closing office and sitting around a table.. I NEVER ever go to closings all of my are remote.. As I have in house notary.. But this week we are fishing and at the lodge.. So I needed to do it on line and it really works pretty slick.. not sure why anyone would go to an office to sign anymore.

In addition I never accept checks for closing settlements.. I only accept wires. I want collectable funds the instant it hits the account.

Anyone else use this ?

We've used online notaries for a few years.  The only time I will go to a closing is on the brokerage side of our business and it is a first-time home buyer.  Other than that for us, closing is like watching paint dry.  One of the best things about the Pandemic was it forced sellers, buyers, lawyers, and title companies,... that were stuck in the past thinking everything had to be face-to-face, to modernize so you can sit at your pool and close
