Can you send faxes from ship?

Just wondering if anyone knows if you can send faxes from the ship. :confused:

We have a house on the market and are wondering if we get an offer while we're on our 9-day cruise if it's possible to send a fax so we can accept the offer. Any other ideas?

Sandy,

Ask at the Guest Services Desk, I am sure there is a way to do it.

Does it have to be a fax or can an email work

Most states require a signature. But I had to do exactly that while I was on a cruise. The workaround for us was to use the computer center on board to print out the form, filled it out by hand and signed it, and then use my iPhone to scan/photo it, and then sent it by email.

Fax is basically a low resolution (200 dpi) *.tiff document scanned in, aged technology sill in use 30+ years later - can your RE agent scan or take good resolution *.jpg (graphics format) and/or convert to *.pdf format and sent it to your email or smartphone as attachment, upon review - add your signature (or, go to the ship's internet center to print it out @ 50 cents per page, sign it & then reverse the process & eFax/email the newer graphics document, and send it back to your RE agent and/or attorney to act upon with your explicit instructions.

On our Android devices, we can do cloud printing (surely, there's a way to do it on iOS - via an App, etc.) as long you can preview & zoom in/out - a tablet or iPad should do the same.

Just download genius scan app to iPad etc

After you print and sign your paper copy you genius scan it back to an email

Works great

A limited power of attorney will work just fine.

We used eDocs when we sold our home. Our agent would put documents in there, we would read them, and then digitally sign them using eDocs. It was great....no printing or faxing. You would only need a tablet and wifi. A phone can do it, but it's really hard to read.

On a trans Atlantic. Our sale of our house closed while we were at sea. The front desk were really helpful. We printed off our documents from the Internet cafe, signed them and gave them to the front desk who scanned them and emailed the docs to our lawyer. Was super simple and took just a few minutes.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions! :)
