DocMagic is joining forces with Simplifile, a document collaboration and eRecording provider, to create new process efficiencies that will further digitaize the closing process.

During its first two months of lending, MortgageCountry has been closing loans in an average of 13 calendar days—setting a new standard for speed.

As we’re fond of noting, DocMagic can process a compliant closing document package of 100+ pages in under five seconds. But it’s not just a slogan, it’s a fact. Other document preparation companies take as much as ten minutes to do what we do in a fraction of the time.

The remote online notarization (RON) landscape is still very much in flux. Three states recently passed RON laws and a new survey shows RON usage surged during the pandemic—but a powerful official from one of the country’s biggest states also announced his opposition to any federal law.

Brian Pannell, DocMagic’s Chief eServices Executive, has been named one of the inaugural winners of the Thought Leader Award by the PROGRESS in Lending Association. Only 30 people across the entire mortgage industry received this honor.
