Unfortunately, we can’t simply email you the closing documents to be signed with a notary. Closings are considered the practice of law here in Georgia, and there are strict ethical requirements on how everything must be executed.
That said, there are two potential options if you are nervous about coming to closing in person:
- Name an attorney-in-fact! If and whenever possible, we’d love to conduct your closing with someone here in our office acting as your attorney-in-fact. Let us do the work for you and you can stay safely at home!
- Close virtually! In limited circumstances, we may be able to handle your closing over Zoom and you can sign your closing documents from the comfort of your own home!
Health and safety are on everyone’s mind today. While we can’t just email documents for you to sign with a notary, we will happily work with you to find a way for your closing to happen as comfortably as possible.
