New Revenue Opportunities for Remote Online Notaries in the Construction Industry
Remote Online Notarization (RON) has traditionally been associated with real estate, legal, and financial services—but there’s a rapidly growing sector that many notaries are overlooking: the construction industry. With large developments, commercial builds, and multi-party contracts on the rise, construction firms rely heavily on notarized documents to keep projects compliant and moving forward. This creates a significant, underserved opportunity for remote online notaries to expand their business and specialize in a high-demand niche.
Here is an example of a Notice of Commencement (NOC):

Why Notices of Commencement Are Critical in Construction
A Notice of Commencement (NOC) legally marks the beginning of a construction project and is often required before work can start—particularly in states like Florida. It protects property owners by establishing a clear record of who is involved in the project, and it creates a foundation for lien rights and contractor responsibilities.
If an NOC is not properly completed and notarized, it can cause serious delays, disputes, and legal issues. Remote online notaries can fill this essential role by offering quick, compliant notarization services that construction firms can rely on.
An Underserved Market with High Growth Potential
Construction companies regularly need notarized documents, including:
- Notices of Commencement
- Contracts and agreements
- Affidavits and sworn statements
- Compliance and certification forms
Yet few notaries actively market to this industry. That means there’s tremendous room for growth with relatively low competition. A single NOC signing can easily turn into ongoing work, creating long-term relationships with companies that handle multiple projects throughout the year.
For example, a construction firm in Florida may require a notarized NOC before beginning a new commercial project. Instead of coordinating an in-person meeting, they can complete the entire notarization through ProNotary—saving time, reducing administrative burden, and ensuring immediate compliance.
Why Construction Firms Need Remote Online Notarization
Construction projects involve fast timelines and multiple stakeholders. RON solves common bottlenecks by offering:
- Immediate access to notarization, eliminating scheduling delays
- Convenience for out-of-state and international stakeholders
- Flexible availability, including after regular business hours
- Fast turnaround for time-sensitive documents
These advantages make RON an ideal solution for construction firms that need efficiency and reliability in their document workflows.
