Only con is the notary cannot and will not explain the legalities behind the paperwork since they are not attorneys and cannot give legal advice.Another option is you can do it with an online notary via webcam (we did that a few months ago, not for a closing, but something else).

@Chris Martin Thank you so much.I moved B, D, K to the bottom* since I really don't think they apply to the purchase of banknotes, but I would just like to be sure of the rest of the document's language.

There's also remote notaries and if permissible from the lender, they would be a able to perform that via webcam. 

I've been trying to perfect a technique of using a web cam attached to my lap top.

I will be posting other webcam photos in the coming days to give everyone an idea of how things are doing.

If the out of country signer is looking for a Notary one option may be to contact a web cam notarization company.

@Jd Martin yes that was a bit of a convenient slip up, she has become my banker lately too :DK.
