In general, when not specified as 'all' (some Mortgages/DOTs do have intials), I send the first, signature and notary pages.

Maybe. Better not assume one way or the other. Usually the first, maybe the second and the signature and notary page. If they need to approve the quality of your fax then they will tell you if they need more. IMHO

When in doubt, fax them all.

When those instructions come in, that's when you need to make the call to find that out.

Re: When in doubt, fax them all.

BTW...didn't mean to FAX THEM ALL...meaning all the docs. Just the DOT in issue. Over 10 pages is a $1 per page charge for me.

I fax back all pages of the DOT ...

unless instructed otherwise. Some lenders requre each page to be initialled, so that takes care of that. At the end of the day, faxing back all pages of the DOT is easier than just fax bax of 1st, 2nd, signature & notarized pages. Just pull out the whole set, and stick them behind the cover page, along with others afterwards. I just never try to re-integrate fax bax pages into their proper position in the set of dox. Let title do it ... and have never had complaints later.

***I fax back all pages of the DOT***

Why, if the pages are neither signed nor initialed? The title company/lender already has those exact same pages.

Hugh - why all ...

Whatever documents are asked for, I just fax the entire document. It's their paper cost and tying up their fax line. "I do as instructed," unless instructions state just 1st page and signature w/ notarization page.

Why:

1. Often the person getting the fax back for review is NOT the person who sent the package out. Hence, the dreaded complaint call: "It's not my job to ask the closer for those pages. It's not the closer's job to send them to me; I do not have the time to look those pages up on our system: It's YOUR JOB to send them to me." Or, my most humorous complaint call, "You have to go back out to the borrowers! You only have 3 pages of the mortgage deed, the borrowers need to see all 14 pages!." LOL

2. The RARE: We WANT initials on every page even though both sets of instructions that we sent didn't tell you to have the pages initialed and there are no lines for initials on the document. LOL

As some posts, it's just easier to put everything through the fax than sort through pages and then put the documents back together. I've never had a complaint for over faxing. I have had a RARE instance where (as I suspected, but was told "no") the mortgage deed was missing an attachment or addendum, which was caught by the person receiving the fax backs.
