A Trustee signs with valid ID and evidence of capacity, typically a Certificate of Trust or relevant trust excerpt that authorizes real property transfers. A Power of Attorney (POA) agent signs with the original, properly executed Power of Attorney that grants authority to convey real estate. The signature block must show title capacity exactly, for example “Jane Doe, Trustee” or “John Smith, Attorney in Fact for Mary Smith.” We verify capacity and attach a Nevada-compliant acknowledgment so your deed records without delay. See Trusts and Estate Documents, Power of Attorney, and Real Estate Closing Notarization. Mobile appointments available in Rancho Oakey, Scotch 80s, West Sahara, and Painted Desert.

In a Nevada mortgage package, only some documents are notarized. The most common notarized document is the Deed of Trust, which secures the property as collateral. Other pages that often require notarization include specific affidavits (identity, occupancy, or name variations) and certain title or escrow affidavits when the closing instructions call for them. Many lender forms are executed without notarization and only need signatures or initials.

• Typically notarized: Deed of Trust, corrections/limited power of attorney when required by title, occupancy or identity affidavits, compliance or gap affidavits, and select title affidavits.
• Usually not notarized: Promissory Note, Closing Disclosure, initial escrow disclosures, privacy notices, and most lender specific acknowledgments that only require signatures or initials.
• Jurat vs acknowledgment: Affidavits and sworn statements use a jurat with an oath or affirmation. The Deed of Trust and similar instruments use an acknowledgment to confirm identity and voluntary execution.
• Non borrowing spouse: In community property scenarios, a non borrowing spouse may need to sign certain title documents. The specific pages and notarizations depend on title instructions and vesting.
