To be a great loan signing agent, you do need to be educated. However, that does not mean you need an expensive course. Signing agents are essentially notaries who know how to walk someone through loan documents. You need a bond and E&O insurance and you need to practice with sample loan documents. You can find loan documents for much cheaper than a course such as the Loan Signing System. Mobile notaries need to be educated but you don’t have to spend lots of money to get educated!
