Colorado Springs Mobile Notary - Leon Austin

I recently did a closing for a woman who was signing with a Power of Attorney.  Her husband is in the military, stationed in Iraq.  She told me that there was a bit of a delay in getting the Power of Attorney notarized because he had to take a helicopter trip to where there was a notary -- a flig...

One of the loan documents that I have the borrowers complete at the closing is the Colorado Tangible Net Benefit Disclosure.  It's not one of those documents where the borrower can say 'Just show me where to sign'. It's a document that requires the borrower to take some time to read. As a notary ...

There's a saying: 'You won't know how far you can go, until you've gone too far.' For a runner it might mean setting a goal to complete a marathon.  For a mountain climber -- reaching the summit of Mount Everest. It doesn't have to pertain to distance or height.  It could mean pushing yourself to...

Being a notary signing agent requires working with a lot of different companies.  And a large part of that entails following a lot of instructions.  It can get a little confusing.  But there are a lot of positive things about it.  For one thing, it broadens your horizons.  It's like the world tra...

I got a call last Thursday from a real estate company to do a closing here in Colorado Springs.  The caller said she found my name on SigningAgent.com.  That is the NNA (National Notary Association) database of notary signing agents. In order to be listed on SigningAgent.com, one must pay annual ...

People often wonder how notary signing agents find work.  One of the ways is by signing up with signing services. There is usually a contract that the notary signing agent has to sign.  And there may be some documents that have to be submitted as well.  The purpose of these documents are to prove...

There seems to be a 'prime time' for remote closings, and it's usually in the evenings when most people are home for the day after getting off work. What this means for notary signing agents is that we usually will get several requests to do a closing at times when we are already booked.  For the...

I got a short-notice call to do a $.M.A.R.T. loan closing. There was a non-borrowing spouse on the documents. I told the husband that his wife needed to be there to sign some of the documents. Apparently no one told the wife. Sometimes the financial representative shows up for these closings. It ...

I got a call yesterday from a woman in Canada.  She needed a document notarized for her son who lives in Colorado Springs.  Yes, it would be simpler if the son arranged all of this, but the mother wanted to be as much help as possible. She said the he needed some travel documents notarized.  I as...
