Where is the primary residence of the borrower? In your state or another state?

Why are you asking a question that has absolutely no bearing on the answer?

It doesn't matter where the borrowers live, or where the property is. As long as the signing and notarizing are done in your state, that's fine.

I've met many people at the rest stop on the Massachusetts side of the boarder to sign all kinds of docs (various types of loans; sales of: ATV's, RV's, car's, snowmobiles; household items: furniture, art, collector stoneware, etc).

Just make certain you remain within your state/commonwealth's boarders.

By the way, most of the goods that change hands are from sales on ebay, where the buyer and seller either meet here as it's the halfway point, or the buyers are coming here to pick up their purchases.

Personally, I do not trust ebay that much, and would never purchase anything that cost more than $350 -- not that I could afford to lose that -- I just have to have some limit.

Sorry, boarder should be border. It's late (after midnight here) and I'm tired.

Don't even bother the SOS. In your state, you can notarize. It doesn't matter where the signers live, work, eat or anything else.
There are a number of SA who have posted re: the good $$ to be made when you live near a attorney state. Delaware is an Attorney state. I've done many signings where I've met people from DE at rest stops, libraries, fast food places etc. They are saving up to $500 by crossing into MD to get the paperwork done.
If you can do this type work because of your location, go for it, advertise it, and charge enough.
