Newbie

Hi everyone, I'm new to this but I've been a mortgage loan processor for about 6 years now, I figured this would be a great way to supplement my income. I signed up yesterday and I look forward to my first assignment. I do have one queston though: I did a search of Notaries in my area and did not find myself...did I do something wrong?

Maybe you don't exist.

Just kidding.

Your listing may not be in the database yet. Give it at least 24 hours.

Welcome to the insanity!

If you live for insanity, ...

... just wait for your first signing!

Go proactive. Email lots of the good companies mentioned on this Forum. Avoid the ones that have bad reputations, such as Sign on the X (SOX), at least initially.

If you click on the "Add Link To My Profile" box, we'll ALL be able to see your Profile. Some of us who are not in NJ might send email recommending specific companies (hint, hint).

DO NOT solicit work from title or escrow companies! They tend to be unforgiving.
