Total eClose™ Enables Industry's First Completely Paperless Digital Closing--Start to Finish


eclose-radius-blog.jpgPress Release:

DocMagic's cutting-edge technology seamlessly incorporates eSignature-enabled SMART™ Documents, a nationwide eNotary network, MERS eRegistry access, a secure eVault, and Investor eDelivery in a single comprehensive eClosing platform.

TORRANCE, Calif., Nov. 29, 2016—DocMagic, Inc., the premier provider of fully-compliant loan document preparation, regulatory compliance and comprehensive eMortgage services, announced that it has successfully completed the mortgage industry’s first comprehensive eClosing in Massachusetts, which included both lender and closing/settlement agent documentation, for radius financial group, inc. 

Unlike other eClosing technologies, DocMagic’s Total eClose™ solution is a single-source platform that contains all of the components needed to facilitate a completely paperless digital closing.  Paramount to achieving the end-to-end eClosing was eNotarization services provided by strategic partner World Wide Notary (WWN).  Once the eClosing process begins, documents requiring notary acknowledgment are automatically grouped by the system and electronically executed in the presence of the notary. The entire process takes only minutes and can happen in the comfort of the borrower’s home.

“There are a few mortgage technology vendors that have been working to deliver an eClosing for some time now, but they have all fallen short in various ways,” said Dominic Iannitti, president and CEO of DocMagic. “Most of these solutions are merely hybrids that require certain documents to be executed on paper and often force lenders to maintain numerous complex integrations. With Total eClose, however, you work with a single vendor, on a single platform, and clients need only access DocMagic or the company’s SmartCLOSE™ system to seamlessly and compliantly fulfill a paperless closing.”

DocMagic's solution includes all of the critical components required to execute a fully digital eClosing transaction: its dynamic eDocument library that features eSignature, eNotary, and MERS eRegistration capabilities, and the system automatically stores all data and documents within a secure eVault designed to make investor eDelivery as simple as a few clicks. The single-source platform creates a highly-efficient, transparent and fully compliant eClosing process that guides users through every step, logs all activities and creates an irrefutable audit trail. 

Also key to DocMagic enabling radius’ first eClosing was the participation of Santander Bank, which served as the eWarehouse lender.  “In addition to having integrated eNotary capability, one of the last remaining obstacles to adoption has been the reluctance of warehouse players to fund eNotes,” said Tim Anderson, director of eServices at DocMagic.  “We helped test and implement an eWarehouse process to eDeliver acceptance of the eNote to Santander Bank within seconds after the eClosing was completed.  This is an industry-altering achievement.”

DocMagic maintains detailed evidence of TRID compliance from the original loan application and Loan Estimate (LE) to delivery of the final Closing Disclosure (CD) with data, compliance determinations, calculations and documents all stored within DocMagic’s eVault for proof of compliance.

Also notable is that in 2014, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) selected DocMagic as one of only 12 participants in its eClosing pilot project that was created to explore the benefits of digital mortgage technology for consumers.  CFPB Director Richard Cordray determined the pilot to be a success and encouraged lenders to implement an eClosing strategy.  Since that time, DocMagic has worked to perfect its end-to-end eClosing solution.

DocMagic’s integration with World Wide Notary (WWN) is an exclusive partnership for eNotarizations.  Founded in 2003 and based in Vernon, Texas, WWN is the developer of DigaSign, a proven solution that enables efficient, electronic notarizations.

Corporate Settlement Solutions Implements DocMagic's Total eClose™ Solution

ipad-deal.pngPress Release:

Fully TRID-compliant solution delivers superior service and a competitive advantage

TORRANCE, Calif., Sept. 29, 2016—DocMagic, Inc., the premier provider of fully-compliant loan document preparation, compliance, eSign and eDelivery solutions, announced that Corporate Settlement Solutions (CSS), a title and settlement services company, has successfully implemented DocMagic’s Total eClose™ solution.As a result, CSS can offer a completely new customer experience, gain a competitive advantage, and remain 100 percent TRID compliant at all times.


“We recognized early on that in order to differentiate ourselves from a crowded marketplace, it was paramount to offer elevated service to our clients,” said Jerome Jelinek, CEO and general counsel at CSS. “With the addition of DocMagic’s Total eClose, we offer lenders the opportunity to transform their mortgage origination process through the elimination of paper, thereby significantly reducing costs and increasing efficiencies.”


CSS combined DocMagic’s functionality, services and integrations into a single offering to create an easy-to-use, out-of-the-box eClosing solution. DocMagic’s Total eClose functionality unites eNote, eSignature, eNotary, MERS eRegistration, eDelivery, and eVault services to provide a highly-efficient, paperless end-to-end eClosing. In addition, documents that need to be notarized can be conveniently eSigned and eNotarized without leaving the comfort of their home.


“We are excited that CSS is successfully leveraging our Total eClose solution to provide a completely electronic closing process for their customers,” said Dominic Iannitti, president and CEO of DocMagic. “As a settlement service provider, it is impressive that CSS has taken a leading role in promoting the benefits of eClosings and as an early adopter, they will enjoy a significant advantage over their competitors.”


After the introduction of TRID and its increased liability for lenders and their assignees, if you originate, sell, buy or service loans, you must be able to demonstrate TRID compliance years after a loan closes. DocMagic’s system provides electronic proof and evidence of compliant transactions for future audits with a date and time stamp audit trail of everyone who has touched the transaction at any level. From the original loan application and Loan Estimate (LE) to receipt of delivery of the final Closing Disclosure (CD), data, calcs and documents are stored in an eVault to provide the ability to replicate proof of compliance.


With TRID’s increased compliance requirements and soon the implementation of the new Uniform Closing Dataset (UCD) requirement, the future is in fully-electronic transactions that help lenders meet strict timing requirements and provide the ability to fully recreate all compliance checks at every point in the transaction. The CFPB and industry experts agree that it’s better to adopt and implement the technology and processes to make eClosings a reality now as opposed to later.

The CFPB eClosing Pilot

melanie-timBy Melanie Feliciano and Tim Anderson

What does the recently launched CFPB e-closing pilot really say thus far, and what may it reveal?

Any mortgage professional can attest to the overwhelming amount of paperwork associated with the closing process. For consumers, this final step to homeownership has become notorious for causing confusion and even surprises in the form of unexpected costs. In an effort to assess how the industry can reduce the complexity of this arduous process, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) introduced its mortgage eClosing pilot, with seven financial institutions and four technology vendors participating in this program. While the closing is just one portion of the mortgage, this pilot could be key to proving the value electronic records, e-signatures, electronic workflows and even electronic notarizations can have, bringing to light trends that are critical to the mortgage lending world as a whole.

The eClosing pilot went live at the beginning of the year, and is exploring how the use of technology during the closing process can reduce frustration for consumers, improve their understanding and, at the same time, help lenders uphold compliance. Stemming from the CFPB’s Know Before You Owe initiative, it is largely expected among industry professionals for this pilot to, in fact, demonstrate that electronic processes accomplishes these goals.

In addition to the value of modern technology, the eClosing pilot is demonstrating the importance of accurate data. To this point, the primary focus for lenders has been on completing and delivering disclosure forms three days prior to the closing; however, if the data is not accurate, costly and frustrating delays remain inevitable. In the worst cases, legal repercussions may occur as a result of inaccurate data on closing forms, which is often simply the result of human error. Electronic processes and the use of automated documents significantly reduce these types of errors – not to mention, enable lenders to complete forms more quickly. Accuracy of data is intended to mitigate risk for lenders and to eliminate any surprises at the closing.

Electronic documents are much more than PDFs emailed back and forth, but rather intelligent documents that further protect lenders by facilitating clear timestamps to show who did what, and when they did it. What makes these documents “intelligent” is that the source XML data that is used to generate the document can be embedded within the document. This is important as it can be used later to be re-verified for compliance or electronically boarded to other systems eliminating the need to scan them, and have Optical Character Recognition (OCR) to extract data or re-key information. Having this type of automation enables lenders to reconcile that data between initial disclosure and final closing disclosure, making sure that the Good Faith Estimate (GFE), Truth in Lending (TIL) and APR are within the tolerance thresholds. Electronically performing this process is imperative for lenders; without accurate data, the chance that the closing cost will match the initial GFE is much less, causing delays in closing, incur fees and experience many other penalties.

Many documents require signatures from multiple parties, which means they are passed through a number of hands, making it easy for a mistake to occur. Automation and electronic workflows prevent common human errors like losing pages or missing a signature, and also provide lenders more visibility – they can simply log into a system to see status updates of all activities for every transaction, bringing more accountability to their businesses. Automated documents mean an automated paper trail, which is critical to lenders to prove they followed compliance.

A primary objective for the CFPB with the eClosing pilot is to evaluate ways to promote better consumer understanding of the mortgage process and the countless documents involved. Even for the savviest borrower – receiving a stack of paper documents with the expectation to review and comprehend its contents is a tall order. In addition to electronic processes in general, the pilot is experimenting with new methods to help borrowers gain a stronger understanding before they reach the final closing. For instance, can interactive links throughout the electronic forms offer guidance and education? Would borrowers be receptive to summaries, term definitions and process explanations within electronic documents? How about correlating videos?

Evaluating these tech-focused options is how the CFPB is aiming to protect consumers and create a smoother process for the consumer and lender alike. In addition to contributing to enhancing borrower comprehension, electronic documents make it possible for consumers to receive documents from the lender faster, and therefore, have more time to review them earlier than they otherwise could if being mailed the paperwork. This could mean that by the time the closing rolls around, consumers could have already read and even signed up to 85 percent of the documents – and better understand what they are signing, rather than feeling rushed to sign documents they do not fully comprehend at the closing table.

It is widely acknowledged that fraud is a growing problem for the entire financial services industry. The mortgage lending process is particularly at risk, as documents carry copious amounts of consumers’ sensitive financial data. An electronic closing process will help to make transactions more efficient, while simultaneously making them more secure and mitigating a number of risks, from repudiation risk to other types of fraud. Paper documents can easily be misplaced and wet signatures are much easier than electronic signatures to forge. Automated technology hinders fraudsters’ ability to tamper with documents, as well as requires levels of authentication for users that simply are not possible to enforce with paper.

As financial institutions continue to deal with lawsuits – some up to a billion dollars – from the robosigning that occurred, the need for more standardized and automated processes is underlined. Compliance requirements combined with the adoption of electronic processes – complete with time and date stamps and audit trails – will prevent unauthorized individuals from illegally executing or notarizing closing forms. Furthermore, a full, electronic process that captures proper authentication of the borrower executing the closing forms will help to document compliance with mortgage lending laws while mitigating risk during the mortgage origination process.

Although the closing is just one part of the mortgage process, the results from this pilot program will potentially demonstrate how electronic processes can benefit the entire mortgage transaction. There are hopes that the outcomes of this pilot could propel us toward fully electronic mortgage processes in the near future. The technology is there. The need is there. As is the desire from both sides – industry professionals and consumers. With the amount of time all mortgage companies have invested in updating their processes, policies and technology to accommodate the changing landscape, the establishment of a true e-mortgage, used across the board, would certainly prove a win-win for everyone.

DocMagic to Launch Collaborative Closing Platform to Meet TRID Requirements

docmagic collaborative closing portalPress Release:
New solution brings lenders and settlement providers together inside a secure collaborative portal to view and exchange fee data prior to closing

TORRANCE, Calif., April 23, 2015 -- DocMagic, Inc., the premier provider of fully-compliant loan document preparation, compliance, eSign and eDelivery solutions, announced that it will launch a Collaborative Closing Platform for the mortgage industry. The solution is comprised of a secure, seamless and dynamic web-based portal that efficiently and expeditiously helps lenders comply with the TILA-RESPA Integrated Disclosure (TRID) rule that becomes effective on August 1.

DocMagic's Collaborative Closing Platform enables streamlined, real-time exchange of information between lenders, settlement agents and their associates via a secure web portal designed to electronically access, edit, validate and approve both data and documents. As a result, the coordination of all closing costs and audits of critical disclosure details are addressed prior to closing and in full compliance with TRID.

"Our Collaborative Closing Platform brings all of the necessary closing components and parties together to effectively assist lenders in complying with TRID in a very efficient, timely fashion," said Dominic Iannitti, president and CEO of DocMagic. "With one simple click, lenders can invite their settlement providers to view and update disclosure data, which is automatically analyzed by DocMagic's comprehensive Audit Engine in preparation for final approval by the lender."

The solution utilizes version 3.3 of the new MISMO standard that is needed for TRID to bi-directionally and securely pass data between parties. DocMagic's Audit Engine automatically tracks RESPA tolerance levels, changes in fees and related approvals to ensure compliance with applicable regulations. Each step in the process is tracked and stored within the secure environment.

Approved parties that are involved in the process can view a full electronic audit trail history of compliance, workflow and document management, which is securely captured and housed in a centralized area for easy access and reporting. Inside the secure platform parties with appropriate permissions can access shared documents, enter and adjust data, view the closing disclosure in real-time as it is modified, and communicate via an integrated chat system.

DocMagic's Closing Collaboration Platform leverages its eSign technology to deliver and facilitate the electronic signing of the closing disclosure and related documentation. The solution also provides a bridge that can seamlessly integrate with title, closing and lender LOS systems. The company says that in addition to lenders and settlement providers being able to utilize the platform, other relevant technology vendors can also take advantage of the solution to review and share data and documents.

DocMagic Secures Exclusive Agreement with World Wide Notary, Inc. to Leverage eNotarization Technology for eClosings

wwnPress Release:
Major partnership enables DocMagic to compliantly process a fully paperless, true mortgage eClosing - from start to finish

TORRANCE, Calif., March 10, 2015 - DocMagic, Inc., the premier provider of fully-compliant loan document preparation, compliance, eSign and eDelivery solutions, announced today that it formed an exclusive strategic alliance with World Wide Notary, Inc. (WWN), a pioneering developer of electronic notarization services. The partnership integrates WWN's patent pending DigaSign eNotary technology into DocMagic's eServices platform to deliver a fully paperless eClosing solution.

The solution allows borrowers, lenders, settlement agents and mobile notaries to eSign documents and eNotarize - both online and offline. As a result, the entire closing process is streamlined, paper is eliminated, costs are reduced and compliance is ensured.

"The addition of WWN's advanced eNotary capability adds significant value to our platform by keeping mortgage closing documents 100 percent paperless from eDisclosure to eClosing," said Dominic Iannitti, president and CEO of DocMagic. "DocMagic has systematically been putting the necessary pieces in place to transform the company into a true end-to-end eServices solutions provider. Our exclusive arrangement with WWN incorporates a critical component: compliant eNotarizations. Without compliant eNotary capability, a fully paperless eClosing would be impossible to achieve."

WWN is one of the most dominant eNotarization companies and has long been at the forefront of educating and lobbying the state Attorneys General and Secretaries of State to accept eNotaries in a variety of different industries. The company's technology has been certified by multiple Secretaries of State under the National Association of Secretaries of State (NASS) eNotary standards; and, in all states that have approved the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA).

A number of efficiencies accompany WWN's DigaSign eNotary technology that includes dramatically speeding up the notary process on mortgage documents, with Internet connection or without, ensuring strict compliance adherence is met, establishing detailed audit trails, reducing errors, slashing processing costs, reducing risk, and enhancing the overall borrower closing experience. The solution centralizes and streamlines the entire eNotarization process.

"DocMagic is the leading loan document preparation software company in the mortgage industry and an ideal partner to marry our technologies," said Bob Rice, CEO of WWN. "To date, most eClosings have just been hybrids, meaning: a majority of the lender documents could be eSigned, but those that require a notaries' signature and seal had to be printed to paper and ink signed. Together, our technologies eliminate that hard stop in the process and allow borrowers to effortlessly eSign mortgage documents, now including those that require the presence of a notary."

Under the agreement, DocMagic has exclusive rights to utilize WWN's eNotary platform within the mortgage industry for an extended period of time. The two companies have already begun introducing the service to clients.
