Hi Rlsnotarialservices,
There is no “better” one. It depends on your needs. As a business owner, you have to do your own research.
The regular platforms that are out there are too expensive for a notary to maintain. And it makes no sense anyway because different lenders/title companies use different ones and most aren’t willing to use any…yet.
For instance, Guaranteed Rate, who is a large national lender, they use Notarize. But, they aren’t getting enough support from the brokers who sell Guaranteed Rate to borrowers. So we still have a ways to go until we as notaries get to use any platform for doing loan closings.
Now, sellers and cash buyers can be done providing the title company is onboard. But, some title companies, such as Sunbelt, have their own internal platform they use to esign borrowers. Therefore, they don’t use outside notaries.
So the whole RON thing is still very complicated. But it is cool to know that state governments are opening up the ability for lenders to switch to remote closings. Just cannot predict how soon we will actually be doing RON closings. Unless someone mandates something, I don’t see it happening any time soon. Heck, if people didn’t jump onboard for RON closings during the pandemic, what would it take???
