Notaries are sooooo very important to the entire loan transactions! Notarizing mortgages for $100K and over mortgages! Yet they only want to pay us $100-$200 dollars! It should be if the loan is $100K we at least make $500.00-$1000.00 each signing! If we go and notarize a mortgage for over $250,000.00 we should be making at least $2,000.00 each one! We have to do a lot!, sign here, check there, yet they want low ball us on our fees!

In the training it states that we the LSA gain control of the signing from the beginning. In saying that it stated to arrange the seating and put the docs out of their reach and tell the signer that a copy will be provided for them at the end of the signing, so as not to let the signing run too long. This video contradicts that?? The lector states that we should allow the signer to review the docs???

The common mistake on the 1003 is missing the top signature line. It says have borrower sign if it's an application for joint credit, but some lenders want it sign, even if it's a single borrower. As far as the Patriot Act form, the common mistake is not paying attention to how many forms of i.d are required. If it says 1 form of i.d is needed, collect 1. If it says 2, collect 2. And take copies of the id(s) if the lender instructions say so, if not, then don't.

Attention anyone looking to do public speaking. Note this woman's ability to mix her tone. I was struck by how well she used what I call UP sentences ending and DOWN sentence endings. UP are when your tone or pitch is rising.....and it can be confusing (AND ANNOYING) to most humans if every sentence ends this way. Typically this is used when delivering a question......as opposed declarative sentences. Most of our conversations should end on a flat or DOWN tone......stating a fact, etc. Mixing them up is great but using only one is well, boring and annoying. Well done to this speaker !

There's no such thing as a stupid question... So I'd like to ask a stupid question: Can a Notary _predate_ a document before a signing to ensure that there are no dating errors or omissions, or _must_ the signer date these spaces alone (sounds odd, but I can see reasons why a signer might be expected to do this on their own, _because_ they may do so incorrectly, that might in some cases flag the signer's competency)? Also what to do when and if a dating error is discovered? Do you shred that page and do over (provided you have an extra copy), or cross out the error and correct it live?

You might notice in some loan signing instructions that SIGNERS must date their own signatures. Even without that instruction, I would NEVER date for a signer. To me, that is part of the indication that they know what they are doing. Occasionally, a mistake has been made on a date. Signer will simply line through, correct and initial. On the rare occasion that instructions indicate that corrections are not permitted, we pull from the clean copy and sign/date again.
