Very slow in Florida

Any signing title companies hiring notaries in florida. May, June and July I was very busy. Why the sudden slow down.

The week that just ended was the slowest week, I have had all year, by far.
The first week of the month was great. This week looks to be decent.

I've been so slow the snails are whipping past me! But - I adjust and enjoy whatever time brings.

Gee - did you think that higher interest rates, traditional back to school and summer vacation times, unemployment up, and other things wouldn't impact us?

Time to breathe deeply....

That's one way to look at it. Hope when my kids are back to school i'll be busy again.

ROTFL That pretty much says it all!

"Gee - did you think that higher interest rates, traditional back to school and summer vacation times, unemployment up, and other things wouldn't impact us?"

Bingo!! As you, know, some of us have been warning about this for a while now, so I agree it shouldn't be any big surprise. Also, I wonder if the new disclosure requirements are holding some things up, too.

These last 2 weeks have been the slowest I have had in years. I'm attributing it more to the bank failures (TBW, etc.) than vacations, back to school, etc. Let's hope it picks up these last two weeks.

Sometimes, Lisa, opportunities for entreprenuers are

greatest during the down times. You seem to have found that to be true.
