Can anyone give me a ballpark range/amount they charge for signings? Also, for last minute signings, less than 3-4 hours do they charge extra? Thanks! I’m a new Signing Agent.

As a signing agent, your exposure is probably higher than a notary's, since mortgages are often involved. A $50,000 or even $100,000 E&O policy would not be out of the question for you. As to typical charge, the days of $100-plus loan signings are past, except perhaps in certain markets. Some lenders are offering less than $45, but $60 to $100 is probably in the ballpark.

It is possible that other regulations may have been applicable by that time (ie. turn in all registers to the county recorder of deeds where the notary took his/her oath of office). Thank you.
