​

So What is a Notary Signing Agent (NSA)?

​

A Notary Signing Agent (NSA) is a Notary who is specially trained to handle and notarize loan documents. 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.

 

Notary Signing Agents (NSAs), are an essential part of mortgage and loan closings, ensuring the validity of the documents being signed as well as the people signing them.

 

When lending companies close on a mortgage, they will usually hire a Notary Signing Agent to make sure that the loan is carried out properly and all the necessary documents are in order.
 

Title companies and signing services hire NSAs to deliver loan documents to borrowers, oversee the signing and return the documents.

 

The American Signing Agents Association Inc defines the signing agent as, "A signing agent is a trusted professional, usually a state-commissioned notary public that performs the closing ceremony for real estate transactions, mortgage loan transactions, legal process transactions and other similar transactions where an independent third party is requested. A signing agent should ensure that they are disinterested in the transaction and have a mutual obligation to all parties to remain objective, neutral to any position, ensure awareness of document contents by affiant and make a reasonable effort to prevent fraud and protect affiants from coercion.”

 

A signing agent must remain impartial to the transaction and adhere to the notary laws of their state or jurisdiction. Signing agents are prohibited from giving legal advice or interpreting the meaning of any terms or documents.
