General notary work is not lucrative in many states as it is in CA and Louisiana so loan signing work is all some other state's NSA have. In CA, we can charge up to $10 per signature notarized for each document, plus a travel fee (which has no mandate). I do three times the general notary work than loan signings which allows me to maintain the NSA fee I had established three years ago. And by maintaining such a professional fee - I do business with professionals and not mickey mouse operations. After the initial call to offer the loan signing, the only other call from them is to let me know the docs are ready.
I'm not called to ask if I've confirmed with the borrower.....or if I've printed docs....or if I've started my car.......or if I arrived at the signing........or if I've finished the signing........ or if I've shipped the docs.......no handholding, no babysitting, no nonsense - no headaches from the professional companies. |
