What is the difference between purchase agreement and closing on a house?
A purchase agreement is, well, an agreement to purchase a property. It sets the price the buyer will pay to the seller. "Closing" on a house is signing all the paperwork (and there is a lot of it!). This includes not only the purchase price, but all the fees associated with a property transfer -- title searches, taxes and the like, the details of the mortgage (the agreement between the purchaser and the lending institution), the commission to be paid to the real estate agent, etc. All that stuff in addition to the actual purchase price is "closing costs" and there is usually a separate agreement specifying which of these costs will be paid by the buyer and which by the seller. You can get writer's cramp signing all the papers at a closing!

Are there any schools that teach you how to do a settlement closing?
Most Notary associations ie National Notary Association, American Notary Association, etc. have signing certification courses available, both online and live. These courses give you an overview of how to perform a real estate signing as a notary only. They are helpful in getting you familar with standard loan docs, etc. However, a Settlement Agent, (SA) does more than just notarizing closings when referred to in a title agency transaction. The SA receives funds, conducts the closing, disburses funds according to the Lender's Closing instruction or Sales agreement (if no lender involved), records the legal documents, etc. I don't know of a particular course offered that specifically addresses all functions of a Settlement Agent that is available to the general public. Most courses addressing SA are provided as Continuing Education courses (CE) directly by the Title Underwriters and some continuing education schools. If you are just looking to understand the signing process and work as a Notary signing agent, I'd suggest the Notary sites. Otherwise, you need to apprentice within a title agency to gain experience as full-fledged Settlement Agent since there is very specific criteria required by Federal, State, Local laws and the Title Underwriters and Title Agencies when handling other people's funds in trust.

How much money does a notary make?
Depends on the type of notary. If they are a realtor or banker they notarize in conjunction with these services. I am a notary and do not work with a company and didn't get the extra training to notarize real estate forms. That was an extra cost for training and another test. As it was I paid 600.00 for training, finger printing, bonding, and the state test. I can only charge 15.00 per signature when I do a notarization. I am not getting rich off of this and I will have to retake training and the test in 4 years.
