I have done one signing for a manufactured/mobile home and since the escrow officer hired me and the signing was in my office, I didn't sweat the forms I was unfamiliar with.
It doesn't matter what the norm is, just do your job as notary; whether jurat or ack.
***and we can't notarize anything with blank spaces***
Who told you that? The handbook references "incomplete documents". Just because the legal description isn't attached, or is referenced as an exhibit A...you can still notarize the document.
If we follow your logic, about blank spaces, then I guess 99% of the grant deeds that notaries do without the transfer tax computed (a blank) then all those notaries did it wrong??
Most documents are prepared by title companies/lenders BEFORE they know the legal description to the property. Let the title company attached the legal prior to recording. |
