why in the world would you drive 283 miles one way for any amount? as a notary, you need to make you territory smaller and specialize in it for a reasonable (75.00) fee. they probably found other notaries in your area and will now use you in remote places because you will be silly enough to go there. sometimes you have to say NO. Banks do not pay title companies $300 for notaries - that fee covers Fed Ex, staff that opens packages, does quality checks, calls you because you forgot to notarize one page, and the staff that cuts checks to pay off mortgages and other cash disbursements - be careful what you assume. when notaries are naive they cut themselves out of an industry - no one pays anyone $300 to notarize docs. |
