Need a Mobile Notary Signing Agent?

Oftentimes, there are many legal intricacies associated with mortgage applications and real estate paperwork. Because of this, many states require that all mortgage loan documents, real estate closing documents, and other documents affiliated with the purchasing and refinancing of a home be designated in the presence of a Mobile Notary Signing Agent (also known as a Mobile Notary, Traveling Notary, Notary Public, Certified Mobile Notary Signing Agent, or Loan Document Closing Agent). The Mobile Notary Signing Agent’s primary function is to serve as an impartial witness to the signing of legal documents, ensuring that both the lending company and the individual(s) buying or refinancing the home can trust the validity of the legal documents. Mobile Notary Signing Agents typically handle the documents themselves, personally transporting them to each signing party before delivering them back to the Lending, Title, Escrow, or Signing Services Company.
