What is a notary public?
This is an application very commonly seen in Europe. A Notary Public is a public official who approves most of the legal documents. A Notary Public charges a price for this service. Among the documents which can be approved by a notary public related with a real estate purchase are the power of attorney (to be approved by a notary public compulsorily) and the sales contract (optionally, you can have a notary public approve this).
