DocMagic and Guaranteed Rate Partner to Reduce Closing Times

May 22, 2018
DocMagic and KeyStoneB2B have announced a partnership to provide DocMagic’s SmartCLOSE through the KeyStoneB2B platform

DocMagic has announced that retail mortgage lender Guaranteed Rate can now cut closing times by electronically signing mortgage closing documents in advance via “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.
