How is my notary going to receive my documents?
Once all the conditions (subjects) are satisfied on your contract of purchase and sale, your Realtor will contact you for the name of the Notary or Lawyer that you would like to use.
Real estate office would gather all of the information on your contract and send it to our office. We use this information to review the contract and as long as there is still availability on the schedule, we add your name on our Calendar to call you about 2 weeks prior to your closing ( moving date). All the files are accepted on first come, first serve basis and if for some reason we cannot help you with your file, your Realtor would receive the message from us right away.
Sometimes we have clients calling our office and wanting to schedule the appointment even before the contract gets to our office. Unfortunately, it is not possible to do so as until we received your contract and had chance to evaluate it, we do not know if we can help you yet.
As Real Estate market is very busy these days, it is not a bad idea to be proactive about getting your name on a Calendar with a Notary. If you are in touch with our office, you can always send us copy of your contract to us by e- mail. As long as you have subject removal attached to it that will secure your spot in our schedule.
Not all the Notary offices have the same procedure of accepting files. Please contact your Notary office to verify that they accepted your file to be processed by them.
If you have any further questions, feel free to contact me
