Question 1

What is SnapDocs primarily used for in the NSA industry?

Accepted Answer

SnapDocs is the largest signing order management platform, connecting title companies and signing services with NSAs. Agents receive orders, accept assignments, update status, and upload completed documents all within the platform.

Question 2

What is the difference between lender-supplied documents and self-print documents in a signing assignment?

Accepted Answer

Lender-supplied documents are pre-printed and shipped to the NSA or signing location before the appointment. Self-print documents are transmitted electronically, requiring the NSA to print them according to lender specifications before the signing.

Question 3

Why is a laser printer preferred over an inkjet printer for printing loan documents?

Accepted Answer

Laser printers produce smudge-resistant, high-quality output that meets lender standards for legibility and durability. Inkjet ink can smear if documents get wet, and lenders may reject packages printed with inkjet printers for quality reasons.

Question 4

What is the typical market rate range for an NSA signing fee, and what factors affect that rate?

Accepted Answer

Typical NSA fees range from $75 to $200 per signing. Factors that affect the rate include package complexity, travel distance, whether the NSA must print and deliver documents, and the local market's supply of available signing agents.

Question 5

What information should an NSA include on an invoice submitted to a signing service after completing an assignment?

Accepted Answer

An invoice should include the NSA's name, business name, address, the signing date, borrower name or loan number, services rendered (notary fee, print fee, travel), total amount due, and payment terms (e.g., net 30).
