NOTARY PUBLIC SERVICES IN VANCOUVER

WELCOME TO ESKIN NOTARIAL CORPORATION!

A wise man once said that there are only three professions out there: doctors, lawyers and priests. What he perhaps meant is that true professionals are dedicated to helping their clients unconditionally, honestly and in a completely unbiased manner. I would definitely add Notaries to that list. Being a Notary is not merely a job, to me it represents a vocational calling.

My name is Nikolay Eskin. I was commissioned as Notary Public in British Columbia in May 2012 after graduating from Master of Arts in Applied Legal Studies program at Simon Fraser University. Prior to becoming a Notary Public I gained valuable experience as a licensed immigration consultant. And before that I worked for nine years as a Realtor in Vancouver helping clients buying and selling their homes. Becoming a Notary was a logical next step for me. I love helping people and I call upon all my experience in assisting my clients in various circumstances that require a Notary Public to step in: purchasing or selling a home, drafting a Power of Attorney or notarizing an invitation letter. I am fluent in English, Russian and German, and I am happy to assist clients in any of those languages. My office is located on Broadway in the historic Mount Pleasant area of Vancouver. To all my clients I offer personalized service, flexible business hours and home/hospital visits. Please give me a call if you have any questions as to how I can be of help.

NOTARY TRIVIA

The profession of a notary existed for millennia. Some say that the first notaries were employed by the ancient Babylonian King Hammurabi in 18th century BCE. The notarial tradition in this province is more recent, the Society of Notaries Public of British Columbia was established in 1926. Unlike notaries public in most other English-speaking provinces and states in North America (the exceptions being Québec, Louisiana and Puerto Rico), the tradition of British Columbia Notaries has its roots in the scrivener tradition of England where notaries enjoy high legal standing.

QUESTIONS& ANSWERS

Is a real estate purchase registered by a lawyer more legal than that registered by a Notary Public?

In British Columbia, when acting for a client in a real estate purchase or sale, a Notary Public has the same duty to the client as a lawyer. All real estate transactions are registered at the office of Land Title and Survey Authority of B.C. and they are equally legal, whether the registration was done by a Notary Public or by a lawyer.

Real Estate

Does a Will drafted by a lawyer have more legal power than a Will prepared by a Notary Public?

Properly executed Will drafted by a Notary Public will have the same force and effect as a Will prepared by a lawyer. There are certain Wills however that BC Notaries cannot draft and must refer clients to a lawyer. Those Wills usually involve the need to create trusts for adults. Your Notary will be able to advise you on whether the Will you wish to draft requires the services of a lawyer.

Estate Planning

Why do I need to hire a Notary Public to complete the sale of my condo?

When you sell your condo, you have to give to the buyer clear title to your property upon completion. If you have a mortgage on title, without a Notary Public or a lawyer this becomes problematic.

The bank will not provide a mortgage release to the seller until it receives full amount of the loan owing, and the seller cannot pay out the full amount of the loan to the bank until he/she receives the sale proceeds from the buyer. Your Notary Public gives a solemn guarantee (called “undertaking”) to your bank that the bank will receive the loan owing in exchange for its promise to clear off the mortgage from title. The Notary also gives the undertaking to the Notary or lawyer acting for the buyer of your condo that they will receive clear title to the property upon completion. These undertakings are accepted and the sale completes to the satisfaction of all parties.
