I have a question

Hi Everyone, I just joined and was wondering how do I get involved becoming a notary for mortgage companies? I have never done this before and was just wondering how to get started. Thanks Everyone! Bridget

You need to have experience and understand what you are doing before you market yourself directly to mortgage companies/title companies. You need to know your states' Notary laws. You need to read message #33325 and then continue from there researching this board.

DO NOT market yourself to title companies ...

... without first obtaining substantial experience!

My suggestion for someone getting started is...

My suggestion for you is to use the orange "Search" button. Type in any keywords for questions you may have and it will pull up all sorts of past discussions. It really helped me when I was getting started.

I suggest you lurk for a while in this website

and read the various posts. You will have a better idea about what to expect on a signing, and what problems can come up. By the way, business is WAY down, even for experienced people. I have been down 75 % since August becuase of the mortgage situation.
