Yes, I just had to sign the vendor agreement for this year and answer the questions.

The good thing about Signature Closers is they pay you for everything you did in one month on the 5th of the next month. I am signed up for direct deposit to my bank with them and I can rely on getting paid without any problems. I know exactly how much I am getting and when it will be in my account. The e-mail blast seems to just have signings that they haven’t been able to fill. I suspect they fill most of their signings with a personal telephone call. Once you have done a certain number of signings (20?) without errors and with good feedback from title and customers, then they will call you and you can set your own fees.
I don’t do any signings for them that require scanbacks because their website can only accept 10 files. The scanner I use automatically makes a new file every time the paper size changes from legal to letter and back again. I might end up with 10 files or 20 files. If I end up with 20 files and I have to send the extra files by e-mail they don’t like that. So I just don’t do any signings for them that require scanbacks. I still get some signings from them and I think they are a good company…

That would fall on the title company;s shoulders, not SC.
Joe- Escrow. SC is just a marketing middleman between escrow and us.

Signature Closers is one of my favorites. I have a good and personable relationship with them. I usually ask for more than they offer, and they are very good at negotiating a very fair fee. They pay well and on time, the 5th of the following month. Communication is great. The only issue I’ve ever had are when docs are slow from title. They are as accommodating as possible and will pay extra a for “problems”.

I don’t understand. I am new to this company but all assignments they’ve sent to me so far are $75-90?Mainly 85, for refi too.
This is the same good company everyone mentioned above?!
You may be overlooking the possibility to negotiate for a higher fee? I’m new… but had $1,075 deposited on August 5th by Signature Closers LLC. Fees ranged from $90 - $200. You can refuse an assignment because the fee is too low… and you are given an opportunity to state the amount you would accept. Having set an amount that would be accepted, you might or might not receive the assignment! But, I’ve found Signature Closers to be fair and good to work for.

I’ve done 4 signings for them this week. I really don’t like Vantage Point Title, and I had to fire them last night. I accepted a $90 for a Refi, and it was 167 pages (334 pages with a mandatory borrower copy). Because it’s Vantage Point, Signature Closers says you have to deal with them directly, even though Signature Closers is who pays the notary. Vantage Point routes everything to voicemail, which is always full, and they say you have to email them. I emailed them asking for a $25 print fee for an oversized loan package. I told them I would decline the signing if they did not respond with adequate notice. When it was 2 hours until closing, and I hadn’t heard from them, I fired off an email and copied Signature Closers asking to be removed from the assignment and Vantage Point’s contact list. Consequently, I only received one offer from Signature Closers today, and it was a Signature SYNC for Spruce. I don’t even know if I got that assignment, because I issued a counteroffer.
When the offers have come directly from Signature Closers, their folks have been super nice and very communicative. The loan packages are almost always available with ample time to prepare. I’m looking forward to getting direct deposits from them soon.

I finally figured out a way to deal with them and now all my assignments are $120+
The secret is always counter, and counter way more, don’t be shy! Especially when you feel there has been a lot of assignments and they really need someone to do the work - hike the price.
Yes there are some others out there willing to take less. But if everyone unites on the pricing front, they won’t be giving out some insulting $75 or 80 anymore.
I always remember my notary friend in the same field but getting work from a local shop instead of these platforms…she got min $135 - 280++ a job. Asking $150 is perfectly normal.

that has not been the case. Every single one I have done has been within 30 minutes of the appointment.
Very good for newbies and fillers. Pages and notarizations seem to be increasing.

Finally received my first assignment from them 3 days ago and now I am waiting on docs. 1.5 hours to the appointment time and no docs!! Now, I wish I didn’t take the assignment.
Good luck if you have other appointments before theirs, cause you won’t make it while waiting for SC to get the docs to you.
Oh, and very LOW fees.
My experience with Vantage Point Title is similar to yours. However, I seldom get the documents on time. They say they try to provide them at least 2 hours before the scheduled closing. I often don’t get them until well after the scheduled closing, causing me to be as much as 2 1/2 hours late. Of course, I checked with the homeowner to keep them informed. More times than not, I end up cancelling the appointment which means I wasted a 4-hour window that I could have used closing somewhere else. They do pay on time and they are generally pleasant on the phone (last week of the month being an exception) but they have no consideration for the NSA’s time or business.

That’s not bad some companies pay less, and also require scan backs of large packets
Wow what state do you live in? Those numbers are not normal here in MIchigan
