If anyone could shed some light on me I'd appreciate it most definitely. I would like to get into this business but I'd like to know what industry would I profit off of most and what specific notary class would I need to take? Have a Great Day.
Becoming a notary is not easy in all states. Becoming a Signing Agent is best done through the National Notary Association. Even then, you may not get work, they want people with banking, lending, and real estate experience. You may not have criminal record, you must be bondable and carry at least 500k of E&O ins. Keep in mind that if you make ONE little mistake on loan documents you have to go back and correct it at your expense. You will NOT make 75.-125. an hour. I have 12 yrs exp in this
Take the NNA course...More complete and backed by recognized organization.....Costs more but sometimes you have to pay extra for quality...Isnt that what you want your clients to do?
just took my course and now waiting for my state senator to endorse me. While I wait, is there a list of signing services you know of? I know of notary rotary but want to cast my net wide to start.
I just became a Notary Signing Agent (certified through the NNA). I'm based in N.J. Are there any specific NSA sites that you've found to be especially 'active' in terms of calling you? I'm just getting started and need to get calls. Any insight in this regard would be helpful!
@JbkNSA I used to work for a title company. Best advice is be available and try to cut out the middle man that is the signing service. It will take time and luck but you may find a place gives you steady work. We were very small and I gave one woman 3-4 a week, sometimes more. Other advice is BE PROFESSIONAL. Some notaries are "on the edge of life" people and do not leave a good impression. Finally, BE FLEXIBLE. He is not kidding about it always being last minute stuff.
@Srd1126@Srd1126 Thank you for the advice. Being that the guy who is mentoring me is a former political official, here in N.J., and I'm also a computer science instructor for several of the community colleges here, the 'be professional' item goes without saying. However, I did see a guy at a signing in a pair of camouflage shorts and a tank top. He'd just gotten off of his motorcycle. I don't do that. Polo shirt and slacks, more to my current taste.
@JbkNSA that is the smart way to dress. And be sure to act right as well. You don't want to know some of what I have heard. BTW: when you do a signing, do you just have to notorize the note and mortgage?
@Srd1126 Inasfar as the notarization of documents, I know that each signing is different. So, I notarize whatever indicates having to be notarized. With that said, I don't immediately assume that there's only going to be a set number of actual notarizations at a signing. I simple 'go with the flow' and let the documents determine the work involved.
THANKS FOR THE ADVICE. SOME COMPANIES ON LINE CHARGE DIFERENT FEES FOR BECOMING A NOTARY PUBLIC. SHOULD I JUST BECOME A SIGNING AGENT OR I HAVE TO BE NOTARY PUBLIC FIRST???? PLEASE LET ME KNOW!
