addy on a signature cert

I did a purchase today, the realtor was there and took the docs with him, so this is from memory. At the end of the typical verbiage was a line asking where the notary public resides (residing at__________)
I went ahead and put my address. I have never seen that before and don't remember ever reading about it. Am I supposed to put my addy or maybe just my city/state? BTW the actual signing took 30 min, waiting on the realtor added an hour to that! errrrg TIA

You're not required to put any information on the docs other than what is required by CA notary law. If you're comfortable putting your address there, fine. If not, just leave it blank.

I wasn't real comfy with giving that info, but couldn't remember anything about that situation. Thanks I will remember for next time.

FWIW, since I have a PO Box I will fill out those when I see them. I figure it's easier than having to deal with the phone calls asking why I didn't. But if I didn't use a PO Box I would probably just put my city and state. I definitely wouldn't put my home address.

For lines like that, I have always tended to put the state and county information I am from.
