Yes, for real estate documents in particular. However, local regulations may provide for "acknowledgement" of an existing signature by the signatory, where such acknowledgement is stated to a notary under the proper conditions (evidence of signatory identity, statement of location and date where signature was made, sworn under oath, etc).

Can a notary notarize a document from another state?
Yes. A Notary Public is verifying that you are who you represent yourself to be. You will be asked for photo ID, and likely to sign the document in front of the Notary.
