Refinancing in the time of pandemic

So our refinance is ready. We are closing on Wednesday. Could get some money back at the signing.

We have some pressing matters out of town so we weren’t sure when we could actually do the signing.

Title agent: When are you available on Wednesday?
Me: Well I’m back in the office but I can come to the signing at lunch time
Agent: Oh no, we’ll just send a notary to your house.
Me: Really?

Yep. Really. We’ll do it sitting at our dining room table.
