Utilizing E-signatures in your real estate transaction
Gone are the days when your real estate agent scrawled an offer to purchase your dream home on the hood of the car. The latest technology is DocuSign. The “e-signature” is the latest technology craze and Natalie and I have been utilizing it for several months. Our clients are quite impressed with our tech savvy. No more faxes, printing, scanning, or wasted paper, all for the end result of a illegible contact that has been faxed one too many times.
It is so easy:
*We type the contract
*We email the contract to our client
*Our client logs in, secures a password, reviews the contract and signs with a click of their mouse
*Once the contract is signed, we are notified and we can print or email to the seller’s Realtor
*Once escrow is opened, a legible copy (not one faxed numerous times) is forwarded to escrow and the buyer’s lender
Next time you want to know where that commission check goes, remember a successful Realtor is running a business and has a variety of business expenses and DocuSign is just one more.

I was in the real estate lending business prior to fax machines, and I recall numerous instances when papers had to be hand delivered...and then the fax machine simplified the business. I love technology! For years, I have frequently hired a measurer to tape many of my real estate listings: *After walking into so many homes. I have developed a “feel” for square footage and sometimes find that the tax assessor’s calculation is incorrect. When, I hire a measurer who validates larger square footage, the home seller can often command a higher selling price. ...
