and administer oaths. Notaries can charge a fee per signature (maximum fee mandated by the state),
as well as charging a fee for mobile services and loan signing services. Mobile Notaries have been
a recognized profession for many years, providing a valuable service to those who can�t go to a Notary,

industries have developed a need for Notary loan signing agents, who guide a borrower through the process
of signing a loan package, as well as witnessing and notarizing the documents.

- Required Training and Optional Training

To become a Notary Public - Most states require mandatory training or coursework, as well as a state-administered
