Does a business purchase agreement need notarization?

I am in the process of purchasing a business and I have been presented with a business purchase agreement. I want to make sure that I am making the right decision and that all documents are properly documented. I understand that some legal documents may require notarization and I wanted to confirm if a business purchase agreement requires notarization.

North Carolina does not require business purchase agreements to be notarized. However, some documents related to the business purchase deal might require notarization. For example, any deeds needed for the deal will likely have to be notarized. Some business purchase deals are pretty simple, while others can be rather complex. In many situations, it is ideal for each party to have at least one attorney representing them in the negotiations and preparing the necessary documents. If you have questions or concerns about a business purchase agreement, you might consider consulting with a knowledgeable corporate attorney. Good luck!
