Colorado Springs Mobile Notary - Leon Austin

I have come to accept that not everything in this business makes sense.  So it comes as no surprise to me when I see important instructions for the closing embedded several pages within the loan documents. And I learned my lesson a long time ago that you are going to get conflicting instructions....

I did a closing this morning at 10:30 a.m. in Colorado Springs. What's so unusual about that, you're probably asking. It's Sunday.       To a notary signing agent, being asked to do a closing on a Sunday morning is not at all unusual.  For those of us who are available 24/7, it's part of the job....

An oath, according to the American Heritage Dictionary, is "a solemn, formal declaration or promise to fulfill a pledge, often calling upon God or a god as witness."  We normally associate oaths with courtrooms.  A witness takes the stand, raises their right hand, and swears to tell the truth, th...

I had a closing yesterday in Divide, Colorado, located in Teller county, not far from Woodland Park.  After the closing experience I had last week in another part of Teller County (Florissant), I decided that I would use GPS for this trip as well, although it wasn't necessary.  If you're heading ...

I received a call last Saturday from someone requesting mobile notary service.  The document was part of a Colorado Professional License application. This wasn't the first time this person had this particular document notarized.  Why a second time? They were doing it for a second time because the...

I have a confession to make. A few years ago I had a closing assignment in Florissant, Colorado.  On the way there I took a wrong turn and had a hard time finding the borrower's home.  It didn't help that he lived far off the beaten path, and that there was no cell phone coverage so that I could ...

During the closing I had last night in Colorado Springs, one of the borrowers asked me, 'What is the advantage to doing it this way?'  He was referring to the fact that he, his wife, and I were sitting at their dining room table, viewing the loan documents on my laptop computer. My Palm Treo was ...

I got a call last week to do a closing.  It would be in a place in Colorado that I had never been to before.  The first thing that came to my mind was: Where is Elizabeth? No, Elizabeth is not my personal assistant who helps me with scheduling my closing assignments, etc.  Elizabeth is the name o...

Question: My wife and I are in the process of getting a divorce.  We have a document that needs to be notarized, and it needs both of our signatures.  Is there some way that we can get it notarized without having to appear before a notary together? Answer:  You will both have to appear before a n...

But don't expect it 'immediately' after the closing. Yesterday was a hectic day for me, and it's not even the end of the month.  I got a call to do a notarization at a law office around noon. While I was at the law office, I got 2 calls to do closings -- one for 3:30 p.m. and the other for 7:00 p...
