If you are contemplating using those individuals as witnesses . . . don't. Parties to any legal transaction should not also be witnesses. If that has already been done then you should have the deed reviewed by an attorney to determine if it is legal and binding in your jurisdiction. It may be. Witnesses are not always required and if there was an independent acknowledgement the deed may be valid under your state laws.

Note that a competent and vigilant notary public should dissuade the use of a party to the instrument as a witness.

The only requirement for a non-compete clause to be legal is for both parties to sign the agreement. It does not need to be notarized, nor are witnesses required.


Do you notarize the sellers or buyers signature?

Both! Both parties should be identified by a court officer for the transfer of real or personal property. *Another way is if you had two witnesses not a party to the contract. The best evidence for a court of law would be the notarized signature. Witnesses forget things sometimes. RJI "Lovelaw"

How much is a copy of Elvis presleys 1977 will worth?

There are many counterfeit copies of Elvis' last will in 1977. These don't include the signatures of the witnesses, of Elvis, and of the attorney. Nor are they notarized, and/or certified, copies. These counterfeit "collectibles" are worth approximately...nothing. If you have a complete, signed by all parties, authenticated, documented, fully signed/notarized/certified copy of Elvis' 1977 will it would bring approximately several hundred dollars (or more depending on the economy) at retail auction.


When a person builds an improvement that extends onto the property of a neighbor it is called what?

It is called encroachment. Be sure you know the boundaries of your property before opening a discussion with your neighbor. If you decide to let the neighbor use this portion of the property, be sure to get it in writing you are allowing the use. Without a written document, signed by both parties and notarized, the neighbor could eventually claim the property through adverse possession. Read up on the real estate laws for your area.


Do purchase and sales agreements need to be notarized?

In general, a prenuptial agreement must be in writing and signed by both parties to be considered valid. Neither party can be under any sort of duress when making the agreement, and it must essentially be fair. Even the timing of the execution can affect whether it is ruled to be valid or not. If there is any suggestion that the wealthier spouse waited to "spring" the agreement on the unsuspecting spouse, it may be ruled to be invalid and customary property distribution laws would apply. Although they are legal in most every state, many judges are still very unfriendly toward prenuptial agreements. For that reason the parties should take every precaution to make certain it is properly drafted with all the elements that show each party was represented by their own attorney and was fully informed regarding the terms, provisions and consequences of the agreement. An ideal agreement would incorporate the names of their respective counsels perhaps by their being witnesses or each signature being notarized by the their respective counsels.
