Exhibit A
Notaries work in Hayward
Hayward notary demand is steady and local. People search for a notary near the Alameda County offices, near the BART stations, and around the mobile home parks and older houses where loan and deed paperwork gets signed. The searches are short and urgent: a signing today, a notary who travels, a notary open on Saturday. Much of the work is taken by owner operators and small storefront offices rather than national brands, so the searches tend to resolve to whoever shows up with a clear page for the service and the part of town. That is the demand available in Hayward, and it is won page by page.
