ELoan

Had to laugh at this lady the other day. She called and said she had a closing only 36 miles away and was offering $65.00......I chuckled and said well, for $xxx.xx I can do it. She said she would get that approved and call back. She called back to inform me that another notary would be doing it!!! Gotta Love it.

At least she called to let you know she had found someone to cover it.
Difficult to say what the other SA got the assignment for as she already knew your price.

You gotta love these low ball SS's. How they think 36 miles is just around the corner and $65 is good money.

I hope they do for accepting such a lowball fee.

Was this for a HELOC mod or a refi?

They pay very little for the HELOC mods, which consist of 9 or 10 pages and one notarization - you're not there long enough to warm the seat. Not that I'm suggesting anyone travel that far for that fee, but sometimes they have no concept of distance.
