Is a notarized lease agreement needed?

[Joshua Telles]

Hello everyone!

I recently had my tenants extend their lease agreement but we've had to adjust whom is renting and the responsibilities. I got their first agreement signed from a notary in person but this time around I have multiple tenants that work all different schedules and it is difficult to get all of them together to do this in person.

I recently looked into doing docusign route, but was unsure if I could have the notary sign after the tenants have signed electronically. 

We're also going to start MTR on our new property for travel nurses, how would I go about doing a notary signing then?

Again, not sure if a notary is necessary or if its just an extra binding option. 

Thank you everyone for your help!
