Colorado Springs Mobile Notary - Leon Austin

I rarely get a call to do a signing on a Saturday evening, but I had one yesterday.  It was a RESPA signing out in Fountain, Colorado. Usually the signing agent who does the RESPA signing gets the call to do the closing.  For the most part, it's a good idea.  I learned a lot of things from that s...

Sunday is when I try to catch up on signing up with new companies.  Usually this means filling out a questionnaire on the company's website, listing all of your qualifications, etc., then faxing a lot of documents (i.e. notary certificate, W9, ... etc.)     However one of the companies preferred ...

123notary.com is one of the first notary sites that I got a listing on when I became a notary signing agent.  And in terms of return on investment, it has been one of the best.  I get a lot of calls from people who mention that they found me on 123notary.  So the annual listing fee more than pays...

Being a notary signing agent is more than just a profession.  It's a way of life.  And for those of us who make ourselves available 24/7, that can mean staying up late at night to do a closing, or being up very early in the morning to receive a call to do a closing.

One of the loan documents that I have the borrowers complete at the closing is the Colorado Tangible Net Benefit Disclosure.  It's not one of those documents where the borrower can say 'Just show me where to sign'. It's a document that requires the borrower to take some time to read. As a notary ...

There's a saying: 'You won't know how far you can go, until you've gone too far.' For a runner it might mean setting a goal to complete a marathon.  For a mountain climber -- reaching the summit of Mount Everest. It doesn't have to pertain to distance or height.  It could mean pushing yourself to...

Being a notary signing agent requires working with a lot of different companies.  And a large part of that entails following a lot of instructions.  It can get a little confusing.  But there are a lot of positive things about it.  For one thing, it broadens your horizons.  It's like the world tra...

It's Sunday night and I just finished printing the loan documents for a closing I have tomorrow morning.  I was actually amazed that the company was true to their word and sent me the documents in time. As I was preparing for the closing, I came across this document -- a Notary Identification Sta...

I got a call last Thursday from a real estate company to do a closing here in Colorado Springs.  The caller said she found my name on SigningAgent.com.  That is the NNA (National Notary Association) database of notary signing agents. In order to be listed on SigningAgent.com, one must pay annual ...
