I know of no reason this is not legal under GA law. GA has some requirements for notaries to actually see the ink flow on the paper, but there are exceptions for property deeds. The notary does not need to even be present or see the signatures happen. But, that is limited to deeds, and is likely limited to GA. If you are not in GA, resubmit your question and identify your state. If there is a problem, it would be on the assignee. Banks are big boys, they can take care of them selves. You would have no personal liability, and it is not illegal.
