As I've written, I haven't received a signing from Title Source on their app. for about three weeks. That's been a puzzle since prior to that time I was getting my fair share of signings via the app. A technician from TS called today to discuss the problem, agreed there was something going on with my app. and he would send the problem up the ladder. Two things stuck out about our conversation. (1) Title Source called me, (2) He asked what my notary fee was. When I told him it had been $85/20 for years, he said notaries were now doing the signings for $65/20. I did approx. 220 signings for TS last year. Do the math. It can be seen that my income would have dropped by $2000 at $65/20. I will never understand why notaries are willing to do signings for low ball fees regardless or their explanation or justification, any more than I understand why people are willing to work at MacDonald's for years on end at minimum wage. That's their choice of course, and I wish them well in any event. And now to the icing on the cake that explains everything. Today I received the following email from Title Source (as perhaps you all have): "Shhh! Please keep our new name a secret!" "Hi Partner. We understand you got your new rebranded pens a little early. We'd like to ask that you hold off using our new name and new pens until Wednesday, the 28th of February. That's the date we'll officially be conducting business under our new name." As I read this, unless I learn differently, Title Source has sold their business to someone else at a pretty price--which would easily explain why notary fees have dropped to $65/20. What do you mean, Greg? Think about it and get back to me. |
