Packaging loan documents is hands-down the best way to make yourself stand out among other notary loan signing agents and get the highest-paying repeat business in the industry.Understand, Packaging is Technically the Escrow Officer's Job.
So if you can do something that takes a task off his or her plate, it will separate you from other notary loan signing agents in a really superb way.
What you're going to learn in this video and blog is an introduction to the full-length, step-by-step tutorial on how to package loan documents in my five star-rated Loan Signing System course for notary signing agents. What's the big deal about packaging, anyway? I'll tell you. The reason why packaging is so valuable (and what can make it tough to learn) is because it requires you to have a basic understanding of the mortgage transaction process. Once you understand that process, though, the theory behind packaging clicks quite easily. So instead of merely memorizing what document goes in which pile (or package), I encourage you to think about WHY it goes there. This blog will help you do just that.

As a Notary Loan Signing Agent, You Can Get Signing Service Business or Direct Escrow Business — and There are Pros and Cons to Each.
Some notary loan signing agents stick with signing services for the sake of convenience, while others choose to bypass signing services and work directly for escrow officers, loan officers, and real estate agents.

Step out of your front door — each and every building you see needed a notary public. Literally. Not a single home closed WITHOUT one.
Now I want you to take a guess... how many of those homes would you say have a mortgage? And how many will be sold again or refinanced in the future? The answer is almost all of them.
And a notary public loan signing agent makes $75 to $150 on every last one. That's a ton of business for a notary public who becomes a loan signing agent.
Here are some numbers I want you to think about:
There are 13.9 million homes in the state of California... but only 160,000 California notary publics. And of that 160,000, only a fraction are educated loan signing agents. But even if they were, there are still WAY more homes than there are notaries! Ratios similar to this one exist in most states across the nation. So why does this matter? Because it shows that the notary loan signing business is one of those rare industries in which the client (escrow officer, mortgage officer, real estate agent, etc.) needs a loan signing agent more than the loan signing agent needs them.

Becoming a signing agent is the perfect part-time gig because most of the appointments occur in the evenings and on weekends — around your existing work schedule.
I want to take a moment to explain why that is...
Why Do Most Loan Signing Jobs Occur on Weekends and in the Evenings?
The answer is actually quite simple.
The reason most loan signings are scheduled for weekends and evenings is because banks lend to people who have jobs. |
