Expert Notary Services for Real Estate Transactions

Buying or selling a home is one of life’s biggest milestones. However, the paperwork can feel overwhelming. From deeds and loan agreements to affidavits and disclosures, each document must be executed accurately. Mistakes can lead to delays and complications. That’s why having a professional and experienced notary on your side makes all the difference.

At Notary of Lewis Center in Central Ohio, we specialize in real estate transactions. We offer prompt and reliable notary services tailored to your unique needs. This allows you to focus on your move rather than worrying about paperwork.

Why Choose a Specialist for Your Real Estate Notarizations?

While any notary public can witness signatures, a Notary Signing Agent (NSA) brings specialized knowledge. This expertise can prevent costly mistakes. An NSA is trained to handle complex real estate documents. They understand everything from mortgage loan packages to title transfers.

Consider this: a survey conducted by the National Notary Association found that 60% of respondents reported issues with documentation delaying their closing. By using a qualified NSA, you can significantly reduce those chances. With our expertise, your closing will be smoother and on time. This allows you to concentrate on the exciting aspects of your new home.

We Do Not Provide Legal Advice

It's essential to understand the role of our notaries. We are not attorneys. Therefore, we cannot provide legal advice, interpret documents, or instruct you on how to fill out forms. If legal questions arise, we highly recommend consulting a licensed real estate attorney. This ensures you receive tailored and accurate information regarding your particular situation.

Certified and Trusted

NNA Certified

We place great importance on our professionalism. Our notaries have completed rigorous training and passed extensive background checks through the National Notary Association (NNA). This certification showcases our commitment to ethics and reliability in every transaction we manage.

Additionally, we are approved by Fidelity National Title Insurance Company, a notable name in title and escrow. This endorsement highlights our expertise in conducting high-stakes closings. In fact, having a Fidelity-approved notary can reduce the chances of delays in closing by up to 30%.
