I think I goofed Regarding Venue!

I recently had a signing in another County a few blocks away from the County I live in. When I arrived I assumed the refi would be for the residence I was doing the signing at. As I started to have the borrowers sign the documents it became clear to me that they were getting a loan on an investment property in another County. When it came to the acknowlegement on the DOT the venue only had the state and not the County preprinted. I believe I made a mistake when I put the County that the investment property is located in and not the County where we did the signing!

Some notaries have mentioned in this forum that they've met their borrowers at Dennys or McDonalds to do a signing. Does this mean that if the restaurant is in another County you would put it on the venue?

Hope this doesn't sound too idiotic, but I'll take my medicine if I can get the right answer from the experts!

You're right, you goofed! The venue should have reflected the county that the signing took place in, no matter where the actual property was located.

Yep, venue is always the county where you are physically conducting the signing and notarizing the docs.

Sorry to break it to you, but it does sound that way. This is basic basic basic notary stuff that every notary should know before they even get their notary stamp. It hardly requires "experts" to answer it.

If you don't know this much, I hate to think what else you don't know. You really need to spend the next week learning your notary laws backward and forward.

It's nasty to tell a notary that they should know how to be a notary?

Gee, and here I thought the information on this board was the important thing. You really think that's secondary to how the information is said? Get your prioirites in order.

Anonymous, I was minding my own business of slaying sockpuppets when you put my name into this thread.

Here is my answer...

Since the question is so very basic and since someone answers it nearly every day, I think you are a fat-bellied troll named Charneiese and not a sincere poster at all.

No way. The profile-challenged Anon is a bitter, dried up old thing who would rather die than put a smilie face in their post.

Offensive Posts on Notary Talk

This is a notice to dispense with the offensive posts. Offensive posts include, but are not limited to:

a) Posts containing overt or veiled bigotry, bias or sexism. We have received numerous complaints in connection with messages falling under this category. Take it somewhere else, keep it at home, or change your outlook on life.

b) Abusive posts. Stop the personal attacks and tone down the callous criticism. Please stop jumping on people for asking naïve questions; when reminding other posters of netiquette, be polite and sensitive (not everyone knows TYPING IN ALL CAPS is poor netiquette); recognize that not everyone has come from the same educational or ethnic background as you and expect some variance in English, grammar and usage, etc. In short, if it appears someone is making an earnest attempt to actually learn something or to be helpful and you are inclined to attack them, not responding at all may be a better choice.

c) Advertising yourself.

Failure to adhere to these guidelines may result in:

a) The disabling of your notary profile,
b) The black-listing of your notary profile, or
c) Complete restriction / lack of access to our site.

Occasional light political humor and off-topic jokes are still welcome.

How incredibly juvenile! Obviously a person bereft of

any original thought. Why don't you go waste someone else's bandwidth. Yes, yours is an offensive post: you offend me! Now why don't you take a well deserved time out, child. If you don't watch it I'll get Korey Humphreys to subpoena you for your intransigence and then maybe Jerold Crimson can be your character witness, you guys are all cut from the same cloth.

Isn't this a repeat of an earlier anon post?

Looks familiar, could've sworn this was the same reply posted in an earlier thread! Hey Anonymous! If you are so big about posting this same copied statement, they WHY do YOU not adhere to it? People that live in glass housed shouldn't throw rocks!

Respectfully suggest you search and read message #76283; it will provide you some insight as to why certain questions receive less than enthusiastic replies.

Re: PartikgirlNJ/re negative responses...

I have read that particular message and I totally agree. However, I do believe as professionals we should not only treat our "customers" with respect we should also treat our associates with the same respect. Advise, support, feedback and constructive critisism are all, and please remember this is my opinion only, acceptable but rudeness is just plain bad manners and unprofessional. I have also lived long enough on this earth to relise each of us define rudeness in our own way. Have a good week everyone.
