In a Nevada mortgage package, only some documents are notarized. The most common notarized document is the Deed of Trust, which secures the property as collateral. Other pages that often require notarization include specific affidavits (identity, occupancy, or name variations) and certain title or escrow affidavits when the closing instructions call for them. Many lender forms are executed without notarization and only need signatures or initials.

• Typically notarized: Deed of Trust, corrections/limited power of attorney when required by title, occupancy or identity affidavits, compliance or gap affidavits, and select title affidavits.
• Usually not notarized: Promissory Note, Closing Disclosure, initial escrow disclosures, privacy notices, and most lender specific acknowledgments that only require signatures or initials.
• Jurat vs acknowledgment: Affidavits and sworn statements use a jurat with an oath or affirmation. The Deed of Trust and similar instruments use an acknowledgment to confirm identity and voluntary execution.
• Non borrowing spouse: In community property scenarios, a non borrowing spouse may need to sign certain title documents. The specific pages and notarizations depend on title instructions and vesting.

To retrieve a vehicle from a Las Vegas or Henderson tow yard, you need four core documents: valid government-issued ID, proof of vehicle ownership (title or registration), current insurance card, and tow yard release authorization. If the vehicle is repossessed or impounded for violations, you'll also need notarized forms depending on your situation.

📋 Standard Tow Yard Retrieval (Owner Present):

• Valid photo ID: Driver's license, state ID, passport, or military ID (must match vehicle registration)
• Proof of ownership: Vehicle title, current registration card, or DMV registration receipt
• Proof of insurance: Current Nevada auto insurance card (not expired)
• Payment method: Cash, credit card, or cashier's check for towing and storage fees ($200-800 typical)

🚨 Situations Requiring Notarized Documents:

• Non-owner retrieval: Family member, spouse, or friend picking up the vehicle needs notarized VP-136 Power of Attorney
• Repossession release: Lender redemption requires notarized VP-020 Repossession Affidavit
• Title complications: Out-of-state titles or lost titles may require notarized affidavits of ownership
• Business vehicles: Corporate authorization letters must be notarized with proof of signatory authority
• Estate vehicles: Deceased owner situations require notarized executor/administrator authorization

⏰ Timeline Matters: Tow yard storage fees in Spring Valley and surrounding areas typically run $35-50 per day. Missing required notarized documents adds 2-5 days to retrieval, costing $70-250 in avoidable storage fees. Lake Mead Mobile Notary meets you at tow yards throughout Clark County to notarize authorizations on-site, enabling same-day vehicle release.

💡 Pro Tip: Call the tow yard before going. Ask specifically what documents they require for your situation. If notarization is needed, schedule a mobile notary appointment to meet you at the facility, avoiding multiple trips and additional storage costs.
