After 1800+ closings, one thing I’ve learned is this…
Being PREPARED matters.
A smooth signing doesn’t start at the table. It starts before you ever walk through the door.
Here are a few things I never leave home without:
✔️ Multiple stamps
✔️ Blue pens
✔️ Binder clips & rubber bands
✔️ Journal & receipt book
✔️ Clipboard
✔️ Gloves, masks & shoe covers
✔️ Sticky tabs
✔️ Lotion & mints (because dry hands and dragon breath are NOT part of the signing experience 😂)
And yes… my bag stays packed and ready at all times.
Especially as a mobile notary and loan signing agent, preparation builds confidence.
New notaries often think success is about having the “perfect” setup…
But honestly? Consistency, organization, and professionalism will take you MUCH further.
What’s ONE thing you always keep in your notary bag? 👇🏾
