What Does a Notary Signing Agent Do During a Loan Signing?
If you're buying, selling, refinancing, or making changes to a home loan, you may encounter a Notary Signing Agent during the closing process. But what exactly does a Notary Signing Agent do?
A Notary Signing Agent (NSA) is a commissioned notary who has additional training in handling loan and real estate signing appointments. Their role is to help guide signers through the signing process while making sure documents are signed, dated, and notarized where required.
What Happens During a Loan Signing?
During a signing appointment, a Notary Signing Agent may:
* Verify the identity of the signer(s)
* Present the documents and indicate where signatures, dates, or initials are required
* Complete required notarizations
* Carefully review the completed package for missed signatures, dates, or initials
* Follow instructions provided by the title company, lender, or signing company
* Return the completed documents according to the provided instructions
A Notary Signing Agent does not provide legal advice or explain loan terms. Questions about the terms of the transaction should be directed to the appropriate title, lending, or legal professional.
What Types of Signings Can a Notary Signing Agent Handle?
Loan and real estate signing appointments may include refinance packages, seller documents, loan modifications, HELOCs, purchase documents, and other real estate-related documents.
Some packages are short, while others contain many pages and require multiple signatures, initials, dates, and notarizations. Attention to detail is an important part of the signing process.
