Contact Management
Centralized contact records store borrower, co-borrower, and third-party details with field-level notes, grouping by loan file and organization to speed prefill and communication during origination and servicing.
Electronic signatures used for mortgage documents are generally valid under ESIGN and UETA in the United States when intent, consent, and a reliable record are present; retention and identity verification practices should be aligned with state laws and lender policies.
Centralized contact records store borrower, co-borrower, and third-party details with field-level notes, grouping by loan file and organization to speed prefill and communication during origination and servicing.
Define organizational units, assign administrators, and associate users with branches or loan departments to reflect corporate structure and apply consistent signing and retention policies across mortgage teams.
Create and maintain mortgage-specific templates for disclosures, promissory notes, and closing packages with locked fields, conditional sections, and version control for regulatory consistency.
Send identical forms to multiple recipients or contacts simultaneously, tracking individual completion status and reducing repetitive sends for disclosures and routine notices across many loan files.
Implement sequential or parallel signing flows with role definitions (borrower, co-borrower, loan officer, closer) and conditional routing to ensure correct sign order and approvals.
Built-in reporting surfaces signer status, turnaround times, and audit logs to support operational KPIs and compliance reviews for mortgage portfolios.
Integrate with Google Docs to import and convert documents into signing-ready PDFs; maintain version control and allow edits before finalizing templates while preserving field placement and formatting for borrower packages.
Two-way synchronization with CRM systems updates contact records and loan metadata, pre-fills signer information in templates, and logs signature events back to the contact or opportunity for a single source of truth.
Connect to Dropbox for automatic archival of executed PDFs and maintain a separate storage folder per loan or client; use folder triggers to start automated workflows when new executed documents arrive.
A visual template editor allows conditional fields, role placeholders, and locked sections so compliance language and required borrower disclosures are consistently applied across all mortgage template variants.
