Notary Bonds

A notary public is someone who acts as a witness to the identity of a person who needs to get an official document signed. Notary publics must be commissioned or licensed in their county of residence, but they have statewide jurisdiction so they can notarize within any county in their state.

There are 2 kinds of Kentucky Notary Publics:

Kentucky Notary Public State at Large: a notary public who is appointed to perform tasks within the state of Kentucky, but the documents may be sent to other states for recording.
Kentucky Notary Public Special Commission: a notary public who is appointed to perform tasks inside or outside the state of Kentucky covering documents to be recorded in Kentucky.

Ready to become a Kentucky notary? First, you’ll need to get your Kentucky Notary Public License and Kentucky Notary Bond.

NetVU Leadership Summit 2014 Recap (Southlake, TX)

NetVU

This past weekend I was honored to attend the NetVU Leadership Summit in Southlake, TX (DFW area). Present at the summit were all of the NetVU Chapter leaders from across the country, various committee leaders, and NetVU sponsors.

We stayed in nice digs.

We ate very well and lots (it’s rumored that Joda Parent used to feed the Arkansas Razorbacks Football team. I believe it, mostly because I ate like a 300lb. Lineman)

I worked all week last week, early mornings and long days and this rolled right into a weekend chalk full with NetVU Leadership activities. And I was back into work early Monday morning. While I am tired, on another level I am refreshed. I have new clarity about a few things I need to do. I have new contacts that I want to follow up with and continue to learn from. I have some new friends that I want to keep in touch with. But here’s what I saw…

If you are considering selling your car yourself, here’s a checklist of things to do to maximize chances of a successful sale.
