eClosing with Snapdocs and Maxwell: a Better Experience for Lenders & Borrowers
Most lenders today have invested in point-of-sale technology to streamline their operations and meet borrower expectations. Still, manual closing processes continue to serve as a bottleneck within the lending process, causing delays, errors, and frustration for all participants.
Closing has historically been fragmented and paper-heavy, often with over 15 stakeholders who each have their own technology, document types, and state and county regulations. It’s no wonder, then, that even lenders who have added efficiency-boosting technology into their processes continue to struggle with gains in the clear-to-close process.
Digital closing technology solves these challenges by eliminating operational efficiencies and simplifying the closing. In fact, National Mortgage News reports that lenders can save over $444 on their loan costs when using full eClosing, while reducing the closing time by 157 minutes.
That’s why we partnered with Snapdocs—to help lenders accelerate digital closing adoption, and deliver a streamlined experience to borrowers and the loan officers who serve them. The Snapdocs’ eClosing platform connects all participants, processes, and technologies to power a fully digitized closing, at scale. The platform standardizes all closing types, enabling faster and more profitable closings. Lenders benefit from Snapdocs’ proprietary AI-powered technology, which reduces manual tasks, eliminates errors, and provides a seamless and automated borrower experience.

As loan costs rise, competition increases, and borrower expectations change, the use of eClosing technology is only becoming more vital to lender success. In today’s margin compressed environment, local lending teams need every advantage at every step of the process to support profitability. Closing is a vital aspect of that process, where lenders can not only unearth time and cost savings, but take an opportunity to wow their borrowers one last time on the path to homeownership.
