Why You Should Get the NNA Membership and Support Hotline - Is Becoming a Member Worth It? [Special Discount]

NNA Membership

I'm Frequently Asked, "Should I Get the NNA Membership? Is it Worth It?"

As a signing agent, it is imperative that you have as many tools as possible to succeed! 

Imagine you are filling out a notarization on a deed of trust and the notarial verbiage does NOT look familiar? 

Or what if a lender asked you to do something that you are not sure is even legal for a notary to do? 

Or maybe you received an out-of-state loan signing assignment from a signing service and you see a loan document you’ve never seen before and need help understanding it in REAL-TIME (I’m talking in the middle of your signing, real-time)? 

What do you do? Who do you call for the answers? 

If you had an NNA membership, you would just pick up the phone and call (they are open 5am to 7pm pacific Monday-thru Friday and 7am to 5pm pacific on Saturdays)!

The NNA membership is a signing agent's best friend and this is why I recommend all signing agents (especially new signing agents) get the NNA membership!

What Notary Loan Signing Agent Certification(s) Do You Need?

1/28/2020

By Mark Wills - Course Instructor of Loan Signing System, Forbes Real Estate Council Member, and Best Selling Author

I'm often asked, "Which notary public loan signing agent certifications should I have to be successful? There are so many out there, which ones do I really need?"


Which Notary Loan Signing Agent Certifications You Need?

The answer is that you only really need two. 

While there is yet to be one authoritative loan signing certification the whole entire industry recognizes, there are two certifications that command respect and will give you the knowledge and skills to become a top notary public loan signing agent. 

The two certifications you’ll need as a notary public loan signing agent are the National Notary Association (NNA) notary signing agent certification and the Loan Signing System loan signing agent certification.
NNA Loan Signing Agent Certification
Loan Signing System Notary Public Agent Certification

The first reason you should have both is because various signing agent databases and mortgage professionals recognize these two certifications. 

Most importantly, however,  they are two separate and distinct certifications that compliment each other to give you the knowledge and skills required to become a top loan signing agent.

To see why each is unique and why it’s important to have both, you need to understand what both certifications are trying to teach you.

What Other Loan Signing Courses and Certifications WON'T Teach You: How to Get Loan Signings Directly from Escrow Offices

By Mark Wills - Course Instructor of Loan Signing System, Forbes Real Estate Council Member, and Best Selling Author

I’m frequently asked, “Mark, how do I get the highest paying notary loan signing jobs that pay $125 to $200 directly from escrow officers, mortgage officers, and real estate agents?”

Getting Loan Signing Jobs From Signing Services Is Easy! 

​Some notary loan signing agents absolutely love signing services and databases. The idea of prospecting for business terrifies them. Being in a database like Snapdocs or 123Notary means that they simply get a phone call or text directly to their cell phone and a signing appointment falls in their lap. They are beyond happy to split the signing fee for this very reason.

However, the drawbacks of getting loan signing jobs directly from notary signing agent databases and loan signing service companies is just that — you have to split the fee. So you're only getting paid $75 to $100 per loan signing job. You also have less control over how many signing jobs you get. And you actually have higher monthly expenses because you are required to print the loan documents yourself from your home.


That's why there are notary loan signing agents who bypass signing services and get loan signing jobs directly from the source: escrow officers, mortgage officers, and real estate agents.

These notary loan signing agents would much rather put in a little effort up front so they can make $125 to $200 per loan signing instead of splitting the fee with the middleman and making only $100 or less for the same work.

But…

Have you ever wondered why signing agent training courses do not teach signing agents how to market yourself directly to the professionals at source of loan signings? How come there isn't a certification that teaches you how to get loan signings directly from escrow officers, mortgage officers, or real estate agents?

How to Get More Loan Signing Jobs: DON'T Drop Off Business Cards

If you are looking to try to get more notary public loan signing agent jobs, read this blog!


GET THE LOAN SIGNING SYSTEM COURSE TODAY
I’m constantly emailed this comment from loan signing agents looking to get business from mortgage professionals — “Mark, I've dropped off business cards at numerous escrow/title companies, mortgage broker offices, and real estate offices... and I spend a ton of money on marketing materials but never get a phone call back with more loan signing jobs. Can you help me please?”

While my best marketing techniques are in my Loan Signing System course, in this blog post I’ll tell you why spending any money on marketing materials is pointless and why dropping off business cards is the biggest waste of time for notary loan signing agents. I'll also cover what you can do to get more loan signing jobs instead. 


So let's start with why simply dropping off business cards to mortgage professionals doesn't help you get more loan signing jobs.

How Much a Notary Public Loan Signing Agent Can Make Per Month

12/18/2019

 
By Mark Wills - Course Instructor of Loan Signing System, Forbes Real Estate Council Member, and Best Selling Author

I'm frequently asked, "how much do part-time notary loan signing agents and full-time notary loan signing agents make on a monthly basis?"


The Notary Loan Signing Agent "Side Hustle"

Becoming a notary loan signing agent is one of the best part-time income opportunities. 

Being a notary loan signing agent as your "side hustle" allows you to start part-time with no experience, work your own hours, and make great money!

In fact, Joshua Dorkin, the CEO of Bigger Pockets (the most downloaded real estate podcast in the United States) said "this is one of the better side hustles" he has seen in the real estate industry. 

That's certainly good news to hear straight from the mouth of such a credible entrepreneurial source.

But just how much money can you make per month as a part-time loan signing agent? And if you wanted to go full-time, what is your income potential? This blog will answer those questions for you. 

Notary Loan Signing Agents Make $75 to $200 per Appointment

The monthly potential income for a notary loan signing agent varies significantly depending on how you get your loan signing appointments. To learn more about this, check out my other blog that explains the difference, but to summarize — notary loan signing agents who typically get loan signing jobs offered to them automatically through loan signing services are paid between $75 and $125 per signing appointment.
​
Notary loan signing agents who primarily get loan signing jobs directly from escrow offices earn much more —  between $125 and $200 per signing appointment.
Read my blog on the differences between the two ways of getting business.

To understand the income potential of being a loan signing agent, let’s assume that the average fee you would get
for signing service appointments is $100, and $150 if you received those appointments directly from escrow offices.

How to Stand Out as a Notary Loan Signing Agent So You Can Make More Money

11/20/2019

 
By Mark Wills - Course Instructor of Loan Signing System, Forbes Real Estate Council Member, and Best Selling Author

Would you like to be the #1 choice when someone is looking to fill a loan signing job so you can make more money as a notary signing agent?

If so, this may be the most important blog you'll read yet. 
Click to Get the Course

So, what exactly is the key to making more money as a notary loan signing agent?

It’s very simple — you stand apart from every other notary loan signing agent.  
​

But how?

How  do you separate yourself from every other notary loan signing agent, especially when almost everyone in the industry has the same education?

What I'm talking about here is the NNA — or, formally, the National Notary Association. 

The NNA is a fantastic and respected organization! They 
have helped more applicants become notaries than any other provider and continue to serve as a great resource for obtaining and renewing your notary commission. 

Think about it, though... essentially every single notary loan signing agent who takes their business seriously is NNA Certified.

And therein lies the problem.

If nearly every single notary signing agent is NNA Certified, boasting that qualification doesn’t set you apart or make you unique… on the contrary, it makes you just like every other notary signing agent.

Describing Loan Documents and Answering Borrowers' Questions as a Notary Loan Signing Agent: What You Can and Can’t Say

11/13/2019

Comments

 
By Mark Wills - Course Instructor of Loan Signing System, Forbes Real Estate Council Member, and Best Selling Author

A common question from notary loan signing agents is, “what can I say during a loan signing appointment... when answering the borrower’s questions, how much detail can I go into?”

This is a highly-debated subject for notary public loan signing agents. 

The reason this is such a hot topic is because, first and foremost, many state laws prohibit notary publics from giving advice or performing any duties that may be construed as the practice of law — particularly as it relates to legal paperwork such as a set of loan documents.

Federal regulations aim to prevent people from giving financial advice as a mortgage originator unless they are licensed as such.

This is why you may frequently hear well-intentioned people say things like, 'by law an NSA [notary signing agent]  should not be providing a description of any closing documents other than where the borrower should be signing.'

But is that comment really true?

This blog will help clarify.

What is an Attorney State versus Escrow State? And How Does that Impact Notary Loan Signing Agents?

11/8/2019

 
By Mark Wills - Course Instructor of Loan Signing System, Forbes Real Estate Council Member, and Best Selling Author

I'm often asked, “What is the difference between an escrow state and an attorney state as it relates to notary loan signing agents?”

But before I can answer that, let’s first define the difference between an escrow state and attorney state (also known as a 'no-escrow' state). 

Put simply, in an escrow state, an escrow company directs the closing of a real estate transaction. Whether it be between a buyer and seller or a lender and borrower, the escrow company is the neutral third party playing quarterback to the transaction.

​One of the many duties of the escrow company in a real estate transaction is choosing where to outsource various components of the closing process — including the loan document signing appointment and which notary loan signing agent to hire for it. 

In an attorney state, an attorney takes the place of the escrow company. It is an attorney who facilitates the closing process and either acts as the third neutral party or represents the buyer or seller. However, the main difference between the attorney and the escrow company is that a large portion of the closing process is handled in-house.

So what does that mean for notary loan signing agents?

Continuous Education: The Key to Notary Loan Signing Agent Success

10/25/2019

Comments

 
By Mark Wills - Course Instructor of Loan Signing System, Forbes Real Estate Council Member, and Best Selling Author

Education Is The Key To Success In Any Business. 

I know I’m not saying anything groundbreaking here.  So why I am bringing this up?

Because people often reach out to me and say things like "I'm already NNA certified," "I've been a notary loan signing agent for 10 years," or my favorite — "I've done over 500 loan signings so I don't need your course."

What?!
It is well documented that Bill Gates, one of the richest men in the world, reads on average 50 books a year… every year.

Saying you don't need a notary loan signing agent course simply because you’ve taken another course would be like Bill Gates saying he doesn’t need to read another book because he’s already read a few.


Or like a doctor saying that once she graduates medical school, she should never continue taking medical education classes.... or an athlete who has been coached all through high school saying he doesn't need any more coaching in college. 

Stopping the educational process at any point in life doesn't make sense... or dollars.
