How to become a Loan Signing Agent?


How to become a loan signing Agent in California?

  1. You need to be at least 18 years old, have a high school diploma or GED, and have no felony convictions.

  2. Before you can be a Loan Signing agent you must be a Notary Public first and be certified through the CA Secretary of State.

  3. It is best to take a loan signing agent course to learn about the loan documents and how to handle the loan signing process. I highly recommend that you are able to prove that you are certified and trained.

  4. Get a background check and fingerprinting: This is a requirement for most signing services.

  5. Purchase signing agent supplies: You'll need to invest in a few supplies: including a journal, stamp, fingerprint pad, paper, laser printer, scanner and computer.

  6. You must have E&O insurance and a Surety Bond

  7. Join a notary association or notary networking groups: This can help you with questions, advice and to get new notary updates. Also networking with other notaries can be a great support.

  8. Market your business: Start reaching out to signing services, real estate agents, and escrow companies to offer your services. Also start listing your business online.
