Looking for a Southern GA Notary

We are currently looking to enlist a GA Notary/Signing Agent to perform witness only closings in southern GA. We can also use a Florida Notary due to the fact that this certain title co. is comfortable with a Notary from Florida as well. Now we do understand that if you are a Florida Notary you can't notarize anything in GA however, as I stated this is a witness only closing. Cities include Kingsland, Brunswick, Folkston and some Waycross. Job pays anywhere from $100-$125 per signing, but at least $100. All for just witnessing a signature. All that are interested send an email to [e-mail address] and we can discuss this further.

Thanks,
Jevon Cecil

Jevon,

Please be aware that the GA Supreme Court has basically shut off signings by notaries within Georgia. GA is an attorney-only state. Granted, those Florida commissioned notaries can perform a GA signing, in Florida, but cannot cross the state boundary. The borrowers/owners of the GA property would have to travel to FL for the signing.

Southern Georgia is about as Southern as you can get. I am reminded of a saying that is -- or at least was when I was resident of the Peach State -- often heard in Georiga:

"Been to Valdosta twict and to three Mexican goat ropin's, and I ain't never seed nothin' like it."
