I am a new notary and have been reading in this forum now and it has helped so much, especially with all the stuff to look out for so thank you.
Question: is there a place to get information to actually look over mock documents to help get fimilar with them? Iāve been reading and know a lot but trying to be best informed for everything and I know itās different for every type of signing .
I actually bought this $50.00 book but found it hard to read. The pages look like they were photocopied from another book. There are other places to get better copies of these documents.
I signed with Loan Signing System and the taught me how to go through loan documents, reverse mortgage, Helocs PCORs etc. It helped me gain the confidence I was needing.
Yes I went through LSS and got the confidence I needed, plus the how tos in the business. Highly recommend use this link http://loansigningsystem.com/?afmc=189
Hello! I just purchased this book; scheduled delivery is Tuesday, May 14th. Iām hoping itās worth the investment. Iāll follow up once received. I took the NSA training course through the NNA; however, Iām considering additional training through the Loan Signing System with Mark Wills. My main concern at this point is knowing, with confidence, the five major loan documents. A mentor would be great!!
Hello Arichter! When you say busy is declining, by what percentage than the previous year? Real estate sales are up and consistent, and loan documents must get sign. Is the decline base on an increase of NSAs, a decrease in real estate sales, or a decrease in mortgage companies / lenders utilizing the assistance of NSAs? Thank you.
NSAs donāt do near as many Purchase signings as refiās. Local buyers go to a local bankāno NSA neededāclosed by local TC, so a busy Buyerās real estate market may translate into refiās a few years down the roadāunless interest rates go up.
There have been too many NSAs in some areas for yearsāwhich causes fees to go down as thereās always somebody willing to do it āfor the experienceā. There is really no way to generalize this job across the nation as the local variables are just too area-specific on all fronts. Itās a numbers game. A large population will create both more loans and more NSAs fighting for the work.
As to causeātoo many notaries willing to work for less than a livable incomeā¦newbs come & go when they realize itās not as lucrative as they thought. R.E. Sales isnāt even a factor, nor is the number of lenders. Low interest rates are the driving force.
I purchased the LSS system recently to advance my career. I have not been able to even get through the āGetting to knowā section yet. The system refuses to acknowledge I took the 4 question survey and wonāt let me complete the module. I canāt go back to it and redo it because its grayed out. VERY frustrated right now. Sent emails and posted in FB mentor section and still no contact/support.
As a experienced notary, but new signing agent, I spent days scouring the Internet for documents I could practice with. I finally found a pretty decent packet, but they were California documents and Iām in PA. I did find a good resource at Nation Consumer Law Center, but it is in book format as opposed to document format. Like many others, Iād like to make a living at this; but I donāt see the point in charging for a resource that is so valuable to new signing agents. Therefore, my plan is to take the book format, turn it into a document format and put it on my website as a free resource.
I have a couple people who are taking their time to coach me through this process and this will be a good way for me to pay it forward.
Thanks, I do have that one and itās definitely helpful. Maybe Iāll post a link to that one as well. Itās a great resource. I plan to use that one tonight when I make my husband to one last mock signing with me.
I have gained much confidence watching some of the YouTube videos of mock loan signings. Another great resource is the Managing Loan Signings Like a Pro YouTube Video. What a great resource for the newbie.
