I looked at a couple of packages that I will be deleting momentarily. There is nothing like a notary fee on the closing disclosure or other similar lists of expenses. From this, I take it that there is no industry standard definition of what a notary fee is.
If it's mentioned at all, it could mean anything, from just the state-mandated fees for the actual notarial acts, up to the total amount the title company paid a signing service plus FedEx/UPS charges.
Since I have no way to know what it means, I'm not going to worry about it. I'll just worry about the amount listed on my confirmation (which could also be described as a work order or purchase order). |
