MI-What statw are you in?I get the $65 ones all day. $90-110 to drive 2-3 hrs!
I was making over 10k a month last year now-NOTHING! I cant do thise runs with gas at $5.39/gal.
Iām in Oklahoma. Signings are slow but havenāt stopped. I would not even consider a $65 signing unless itās a One Doc signing within 15 minutes of my house. We are sitting at 4.49 in Oklahoma but I also use gas coupons Andy my local gas station. Please note I am part time so Iām pretty selective on what I accept. Good Luck with your business!
(AZ) 90$ for that length of drive?ā¦ā¦no bueno
If the lady has a successful background she pretends to, sheāll be not doing this job. She should be smart enough to have her investments, or book of business and live a comfortable life. Something fishy here.
I wouldnāt say thatā¦. Investment portfolio goes up and down and there is nothing wrong with having a little something in the side so that you donāt have to rely on the lack of income that the investment may generate. Maybe she want to get out and feel productive and meet people. Many people get or got into this business for various reasonsā¦. IMO
Agreed. Some of us do this NSA job because we want to not because we have to which is better because we donāt come across as desperate and take whatever the low fees that come our way.
Gotta do what you gotta do. If you can swing it to come out positive, more power (and dollars) to you.
Truth! Iām on Long Island also and that is my experience.
I retired Dec 2021. I just couldnāt handle going in 9-5 anymore after 30 years in banking. and I am not yet old enough to draw out of my IRAs. I probably wouldnāt even if I could. I donāt have any debt, except for the mortgage, which my husband pays for. I really donāt need to cash out any of my investments, I have no expenses. I just need money to go hang out with my family and friends. I think this Notary thing is a super easy way to make some spending money. Iāve only been in banking for 30 years. Nothing fishy.
And yes, Iāve been thinking about going back to work, but still dread the commitment.
Yes. I am occasionally taking the $75 signing.
I was in Banking too so I completely relateā¦ but I have to let you know this business is not an easy businessā¦ but it is fun and can be especially with your banking background
I have my fees calculated by zip code. I calculated materials costs including overhead expenses, fuel and my hourly wage. Signings may vary from $100 for a few pages within 5 miles to 1.5 hour travel each way and fees go up to $175 to $200. Havenāt seen too many of the ridiculous 300 page pkgs anymore ~ most larger pkgs 130 pgs or less. Larger cities have purchased properties of small towns. Example Iām in Bremerton WA 98310 but there is also Bremerton WA 98312 that used to be Port Orchard so more miles involved. My zip code method works for me.
I read an article on an uber driver who was convinced to lease or buy a tesla , trading his toyota. He definitely is making more money, MUCH MUCH more , minus the $2000 in gas/ oil change and expenses.
It is working out for this uber driver

Better story : I met a guy who delivers pizza. He delivers pizza in his old ICE car, however he purchased a preowned tesla that came with the warranty and a life time free charging. Imagine zero gas bill ( I mean zero recharging bill) . He could not stop talking about his amazing luck with that deal.
He lucked out, Nowdays New teslas do not come with unlimited recharge, but if you can find one with
warranty and a unlimited charge, it transfers over.
The case obviously is different and the misunderstand is mutual.
Iām in Nassau as well. We do get low ball offers at times but I make them work for me. I charge the ss extra for every little thing. Most times theyāll pay, especially on the day of.
Are you an Italian native by any chance??
You canāt look at just the cost of gas. There are other expenses when you travel in your car. Your car wears out over time and will need to be replaced, There are common maintenance items such as oil changes, tuneups, tires, car washes etc. Why do you think the government currently has the mileage rate set at 62.5 cents per mile.
Imagine a 45k batery???
Some people take jobs at any price just to get out of the house.
And to have home office? Probably.
