In the context of real estate, to attest means to witness or certify by observation and signature that an event, action, or document is accurate or true. This often involves verification by a third party, such as notarizing a document or witnessing the signing of a contract.
Notarize refers to the act of a notary public witnessing the signing of a document and attesting to the authenticity of the signature. This process provides legal assurances that the signature is legitimate.
