#### **Borrowers can have a 10-minute closing appointment when reviewing and electronically signing documents in advance**

DocMagic, Inc., the premier provider of fully-compliant [loan document preparation](https://www.docmagic.com/document-generation), [regulatory compliance](https://www.docmagic.com/automated-compliance) and comprehensive [eMortgage services](https://www.docmagic.com/emortgage-technology), announced that retail mortgage lender [Guaranteed Rate](https://www.guaranteedrate.com/) can now cut closing time by electronically signing mortgage closing documents in advance.

Guaranteed Rate has branded the solution FlashClose, which allows customers to opt-in, review and complete most documents in advance of the notary arriving, saving an hour or more at the closing table – with some averaging a mere 10-minute appointment to provide inked signatures.

“Guaranteed Rate is always looking for ways to simplify the process using innovative technology to enhance the customer experience,” says Jim Hettinger, executive vice president of operations for Guaranteed Rate. “With the successful launch of FlashClose, powered through our partner DocMagic, this tool adds speed, convenience and accuracy to the closing process.”

“Guaranteed Rate is a leader in mortgage technology innovation and collaborating with them on this project has created a solid hybrid eClosing approach that saves a lot of time for both borrowers and closing agents,” stated Dominic Iannitti, president and CEO at DocMagic. “The fashion in which Guaranteed Rate is leveraging our technology has resulted in the successful adoption of a sound, compliant, secure hybrid eClosing that is unique to their retail lending business strategy.”

Of note is that DocMagic offers a comprehensive eClosing solution called [Total eClose™](https://www.docmagic.com/total-eclose) that delivers fully paperless closings from start to finish. DocMagic’s proprietary [eSign platform](https://www.docmagic.com/esignature) is a component of Total eClose and can be accessed and implemented by lenders to help automate the closing process.
