... fellow notary referred a call to me Monday night that she was unable to accommodate. It was 8:30 pm and lender was looking for a notary for last minute reverse mortgage.
SS had hired a notary for a 6:00 pm signing. She had called and confirmed. Didn't show, didn't call. She seems to have dropped off the face of the earth. She's not answering her phone nor calling anyone. At about 8:40 she called borrower (97-year-old gentleman with full wits about him) and said she'd be there in 10 minutes. No explanation. Lender gave her that benefit of a doubt and said he'd call me back in a few. He calls back at about 9:00 pm. Still no sign. We decide to proceed.
I advise lender I'm about an hour's drive from borrower and I still have to print large (his term) package. So, probably wouldn't get to borrower 'til 10:30 or so. Is older gentleman still willing? He calls him. Well, seems borrower is done for the evening.
What is wrong with this picture!!???? ;(
