Loan Signing Agent

For Title Companies, Escrow Officers, & Lenders
A signing agent your compliance team won’t have to chase.
DFW Notary Professional handles loan signings for direct title company assignments and through major signing service marketplaces. The practice is structured for the things compliance teams actually care about: clean packages, complete journals, verified IDs, and signers who finish the appointment understanding what they signed.
Every package is reviewed before arrival, not at the kitchen table. Borrower questions are anticipated, and the appointment runs at the pace the documents require — fast for routine refinances, careful for first-time buyers, deliberate for reverse mortgages and elderly signers. Documents return scanned and shipped on the same business day.
Coverage includes the entire 12-county DFW Metroplex with primary focus on the eastern corridor — Garland, Richardson, Plano, Rockwall, Mesquite, Rowlett, Sachse, Wylie, and the surrounding lower-volume markets where dependable signing agents are harder to find. Direct relationships are preferred over marketplace assignments for ongoing volume.
Transactions Handled
Every loan package, every transaction type.
Purchases & refinances
Conventional, FHA, VA, jumbo, and conforming purchase signings. Rate-and-term and cash-out refinances. First-time buyer pacing when the package warrants it.
HELOCs & second mortgages
Home equity lines, fixed-rate seconds, and combined HELOC/refi packages. Same NNA-certified handling regardless of the loan size.
Reverse mortgages
HECM signings handled with the patience and clarity these packages demand. Comfortable working with elderly signers and family members who attend the appointment.
Sellers’ packages
Seller-side closing documents for transactions where the seller cannot attend the title office. Often paired with mail-away coordination.
Commercial & investor
Commercial property loans, investor refinances, and multi-document transactions involving LLCs, trusts, or business entities. Quoted individually.
Hybrid & remote signings
Hybrid eClosings where eligible documents sign electronically and a notary handles the wet-signed remainder. Remote Online Notary for fully remote-eligible packages.
How a Signing Works
Six steps. No surprises.
Assignment received
Direct assignment from a title company or signing service. Confirmation sent within an hour during business hours.
Borrower contact
Confirmation call to the borrower within four hours of receiving the assignment. Time, location, and ID requirements confirmed.
Package reviewed
Documents printed and reviewed before arrival. Tabs placed where signatures are required. Errors flagged to the title company before the appointment, not after.
Appointment
On time, professionally dressed, prepared for borrower questions. Signing paced to the document complexity, not rushed and not padded.
Verification & scan-back
Every signature, initial, and notarization verified before leaving the table. Scan-back delivered the same business day when required.
Shipped & documented
Documents shipped via the carrier specified in the assignment, tracking number provided. Notary journal entry completed and archived per Texas requirements.
Pricing
Published rates. No surge pricing.
Two pricing structures, depending on how the signing reaches me. Both rates include the standard package — review, travel within the primary service area, signing, scan-back, and ship-back. Non-standard packages quoted individually.
Direct Title Company
$225
flat rate per signing
For title companies, escrow officers, and lenders assigning directly. Includes package review, travel within the primary service area, the signing itself, same-day scan-back, and ship-back.
Signing Service
$125 minimum
per signing through marketplace platforms
For assignments through Snapdocs, NotaryGO, SigningOrder, CloseWise, and similar marketplaces. Floor rate; many transaction types quoted higher based on package complexity, location, and turnaround.
Reverse mortgages, commercial transactions, and packages requiring witnesses or extended travel are quoted individually. See full fee schedule or request a quote.
Vendor Inquiry

For an introductory conversation before any paperwork, schedule a 30-minute discovery call instead.

For Borrowers
If your closing is happening this week.
If your title company or lender has scheduled a notary to come to your home, this is what to expect. The appointment usually takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the loan type. You’ll need a current government-issued photo ID — driver’s license, passport, or state ID — and any co-signer will need theirs too.
My job is to verify your identity, witness your signatures, and notarize the documents that require it. I’m not your loan officer or your attorney — I can’t give you legal advice or change anything about your loan terms. What I can do is explain what each document is for, slow down when you want to read more carefully, and answer questions about the signing process itself. If something looks wrong or you don’t understand a term, we can pause the appointment and call your lender or title company together.
A few practical things: clear a flat surface big enough for paperwork — a kitchen table or dining table works. Black ink only, please (I’ll bring pens). If you have pets that get excited about visitors, plan accordingly. The fee for the notary’s services is typically built into your closing costs and paid by the title company; you won’t pay me directly unless your specific arrangement is different.
Frequently Asked
Common questions about loan signings.
Are you NNA-certified?
Yes. NNA-Certified Signing Agent with annual background screening through the National Notary Association. Certification details and current insurance documentation available on request or through the Credentials & Compliance page.
What signing services and platforms do you work with?
Snapdocs, NotaryGO, SigningOrder, CloseWise, and direct title company assignments. Open to onboarding with additional platforms and direct relationships as the practice grows.
Do you handle same-day or rush assignments?
Yes, when calendar permits. Same-day signings within the primary service area carry a $50 flat rush surcharge on top of the standard rate. Best path for urgent assignments is a direct call rather than a marketplace post.
What’s your turnaround on scan-backs?
Same business day for assignments completed before 4:00 PM Central. Next-business-day for evening signings. Faster turnarounds available on request for time-sensitive transactions.
Are you comfortable with hospital and bedside signings?
Yes. Hospital, hospice, and senior living facility signings are a regular part of the practice. Quoted under specialty services rather than the standard loan signing rate. Learn more about specialty services.
