When working with a Notary, you are giving more than just your signature. Your signature is a symbol of your identity and your solemn promise. Notaries have become stewards of formally signing documents. Working with a Notary speaks of trust, it says "yes" and it means working toward your goal. The buying of real estate and selling of property is often the biggest financial transaction of a person's life.
Hiring a notary to manage the intricacies of property transfers, registration and financing can make your real estate transaction smooth and straight forward. Planning for the future is essential these days. Having a trusted notary help with the preparation and registration of a will, perform wills searches and preparation of a power attorney provides you with peace of mind knowing that your family is cared for.

1. Choose an Executor: it is best if your executor is familiar with your situation and your wishes. Ask if they would be willing to act for you in this capacity and then obtain their full legal names. 2.
