What is a Notary Signing Agent?
A Notary Signing Agent is the Notary
Public that presents the loan documents to the borrowers.
The Notary Signing Agent points to key features and information
on the documents and secures proper signatures, after verifying
identity. The Notary Signing Agent can answer only "What
questions" but not questions that pertain to "Why."
After the signing is completed, the Notary Public notarizes
the appropriate documents in the loan package.
You should always let the borrowers know that
you are an "independent contractor" and not a part
of the signing service, lender, title or escrow company.
A notary public cannot give legal advice.
