HUD sponsors housing counseling agencies throughout the country that can provide advice on buying a home, renting, defaults, foreclosures, credit issues, and reverse mortgages.

If you are considering buying a home, refinancing or having trouble with making payments, consider contacting a HUD approved counselor in your area with any questions.

Once you have received the valuable information from the counselor and you wish to proceed, feel free to use our Notary Locator to find a Notary in your area to help you get your documents signed and notarized correctly. Our Notary Locator can be found at the top of nearly every page of the website at www.unitednotaries.org . Enter your zip code and a list of notaries in your area will be displayed. Read the profile tab to see that they have experience with transactions such as yours.

Are you aware that you can choose the Notary who is used for your transaction? Many companies keep a database of qualified Notary Signing Agents to assist in your transaction. Many times this type of notarization needs more than a general notary so remember that your next door neighbor may not be the most appropriate notary to help you in this situation but a qualified Notary Signing Agent is.

UNAA State Chapters

It is our goal to join together those notaries public who respect the notary and notary signing agent profession and choose to conduct themselves within a proper code of ethics set forth by the United Notary Association. Not that we can monitor and control everyone's conduct but rather through UNAA local chapters, the appointment of state representatives, state leaders, elite membership and chapter membership we can create a system by which there is not only a local presence but an ability to create a family-like atmosphere where everyone knows everyone. It has always been said, ‘It's not what you know, but who you know'. Well in this situation it is both, otherwise known as a WIN-WIN. Through UNAA local chapter participation, it will be who you know but also the chapter leaders will be able to vouch for what you know, how knowledgeable you are within the signing agent and mortgage industry. The UNAA chapter leaders will be in a position to refer business leads to those they feel are the best in the field. Sometimes this comes only from who you know so the UNAA chapters and participation in the chapters helps you to be known to the leaders to receive those referrals.

The UNAA chapters are to be the life-line of all United Notary Association members. Through a training program being developed, new notaries will have the ability to be brought up to speed in a manner that will be fully accepted by mortgage companies and title companies.

If you want to continue to work in this industry, now is not the time to be a wall flower. When I speak of participation; your strong suit and your preference may be helping behind the scenes; participation does not necessarily mean being in the public eye. The UNAA chapters are meant to bring out and utilize the strong suits of all of us to create a better whole. Everyone can play a part.

If you would like to be a part of the United Notary Association and your UNAA State Chapter, please contact the representative listed in your state. If your state is not currently represented and you either feel you would like to lead the state chapter or know someone who may, feel free to contact us.
