Notarization is a safeguard that adds an extra layer of authenticity to important legal and financial documents. Here are the top five documents that often require a notary and why they matter:
- Power of Attorney – Grants legal authority to another person to act on your behalf. Notarization ensures the document is valid and trustworthy.
- Real Estate Documents – Includes deeds, mortgage documents, and refinancing agreements. A notary helps confirm the identity of the signer and prevent fraud.
- Wills and Trusts – Though notarization is not always legally required, having these documents notarized strengthens their legal standing.
- Loan Documents – Lenders often require notarization to reduce risk and ensure all terms are agreed upon by the borrower.
- Affidavits – Sworn statements used in legal proceedings. Notarization confirms that the signer has taken an oath of truthfulness.
Having these documents properly notarized can help avoid delays, disputes, or invalidation down the road.
