SD does NOT REQUIRE enough info to be included in their e-mail blasts for a notary to be able to quote a fair fee that includes all that is wanted by hiring co., which, apparently annoys both parties.
Also texts and e-mails seem to not go out thru SD in a timely manner, which created the situation described by OP.
Hiring party: Not telling a notary that edocs are part of the job is not cool...whether it's 10 or 200 pages...it's time, resources and expense and should be disclosed at the start. Ditto faxbacks, split pkgs, RM applications or final, Trust signings, package size, must drop same day ARE factors that a notary needs to take into consideration when quoting.
Also, 20+ years experience talking...insisting upon 'immediate B contact & confirmation of same to hiring party' is...well...laughable. Hiring party may be sitting at computer, right next to phone, but same cannot be said of either a notary or a borrower. Plus a 'confirmation of appt. w/B' too early almost guarantees they'll forget. Anything over 2 days is 'too early', sorry to say. |
