What is a Notary Signing Agent

 A Notary Signing Agent is a Notary who has special expertise to handle and notarize loan papers. For lenders, Notary Signing Agents are the critical final link to complete the loan. A Notary Signing Agent is hired as an independent contractor to ensure that real estate loan documents are executed by the borrower, notarized and returned for processing on time. Completing this critical part of the loan process enables the loan to be funded. 

 A Signing Agent must be a commissioned/appointed/licensed Notary Public.  To be recognized as an NNA certified loan signing agent one must complete a yearly background screening and pass the NSA exam.
