You betcha! The paperwork for our last mortgage was completed sitting at our dining room table with a mobile notary. Easy Peasy.

I'm not so lazy to sit at the house and make a Notary come to me unless they are already going to be here. Plus BOA does Notary for free, so I don't mind that short trip.

It's not just "laziness." The last time we did a online HELOC, the lender required us to sign the docs with a notary who came to our home.

Ours had nothing to do with being lazy. We purchased our retirement home while living and working in the Triangle. It was a long distance purchase and set up by the mortgage company. We signed at 7 am and left for work by 7:45.

With so many online mortgage companies they don’t have a physical place to go and you can’t count on people signing in all the right places without someone there with them. So the notaries are getting paid to be a signing facilitator as well as for their notarial acts.

I guess most of you defending yourselves about being lazy( I never called anyone lazy lol) missed the part where I mentioned "unless they are already going to be here" which would cover all the mortgages and heloc and whatever.

I still go to a notary for paperwork once in a while even if no one else in the area does.
