jaydub 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2004 Hey everybody,Can someone tell me if it's necessary to get the optionors signature on the Memo of option before recording it? I see the one in MC's manuel has a signature line but I've seen other memo's that didn't need the sellers signature or a notary. Which is more beneficial, them knowing or not knowing you are recording the option? Or does it really matter?Thanks for your timeJayDub Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Adam King (MI) 1 Report post Posted July 15, 2004 Jaydub,As long as they have signed the option (of course) getting it registered is just up to you. Sure, you can get it notarized, but it's not necessary. But, for some reason getting things notarized may make you look more professional to "novice seller eyes". Regards,AdamPS Tony's right, notaries CAN NOT CHARGE for what they do. You'll find them in banks, grocery stores, weddings and children’s parties. Okay, the last two may be not so realistic…..

MichaelC 160 Report post Posted July 16, 2004 JayDub, whether or not a recorded document requires notarization is up to the local office where that document will be filed. Some locales require notarization to record, while others don't. Call your local county office and inquire as to their procedures for this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
