with everyone listed on notary boards that advertise themselves as a notary that does signings in Maryland (can't speak for any other state). Notice I did not say every notary because I don't believe that every notary does signings. Notaries are and should be upstanding citizens that are an impartial witness to a transaction. They should contact the notary that is advertising as a signing agent and ask them if they do signings in borrowers homw.
No one ever trapped this girl into saying that she did closings unlicensed. They merely asked her if she would be interested in any "overflow" that may happen. The person that asked her the question has forwarded the original email and response to the MIA. Actually, the MIA has already contacted one notary in the area, by phone, and informed them of the law.
I don't care if there are 50 notaries in my area that do closings. Free enterprise, do what you want, all I am asking is that they take the necessary steps to become properly licensed just like every other t.p.l. here in Maryland has done. |
