End of Month strange?

Had to closings today from 2 different closing companies. Both from California. Both in the same neighborhood. One street over from the other. How odd is that? End the month and a Full Moon! Any weird things happening to you?

I can't even begin to tell you about the day/night I had. Weird? Very! It's 11:30pm and I just made it home. Thank God this day comes just once a month!

I know how you feel. I did my first one at 1pm today and my last one ended at 10pm tonight. 3 of the closings, my husband had to bring me the docs because they had to, of course, email them to me at the last minute and then my car wouldn't go into park.
I was sooooo ready for a shower when I got here.
Take care everyone.

Becca
Did you get a call last night from a company called Brooks Closing? They called me to do a signing last night in Vero beach, I had a wedding to do so couldn't accomodate them and I suggested they contact you.

Yes I did. Thanks Sylvia! Did make for a late night, though. I learned back in May to have my laptop & printer in the car on the last day of the month for those last minute - late night signings. It has really paid off for me.

Great!!!
I didn't have your number with me, so all I could do was give them your name and hope they would look you up. Nice to have you there to refer calls for that area to when I can't do them.

Thank you so much Arant.
I try to be helpful

I was helped when I first got started in this business and I am just "paying it forward', and because of health problems I have had to cut down on my signings and pass them on to other signing agents in my area - like Becca, so I do have more time for the boards.


Unfortnately, there are some people who think because you can spend a lot of time on the boards that you are not successful doing signings, which is untrue.
When I first started signings it was extra "pocket money" then my husband had heart problems and had to close his business - my extra pocket money was keeping the business going for a while. So then it became necessary for me to do as many signings as I could, and there were days when I did 7 or 8 signings! But now, my husband is back working, not many bills to pay, so I can afford not to be doing a lot of signings, and spend time on the boards. (Plus I have my signing agency which s doing very well)

Yep, I had one today. I got a call from a signing company in CA to do a closing this evening. I was told the docs will be e-mailed to me. When I called the borrower to confirm the time to meet, the borrower had no idea as to what the hell I was talking about. Go figure.

Well , the 2 that I did from California, were sent to me here in Florida. Also, everyone that I did was on edge. And it took longer on both of them that expected. Full Moon again tonight!
Get ready for the unexpected!

Received a signing, last minute of course, for last evening (after 9PM). Turned out to be the same Borrower I signed on the 13th. He didn't like the first loan, exercised his RTC and started over. Different signing agency, same lender. Oh, did I mention the first signing was on Friday the 13th?

Yesterday was crazy, but I love the challenge of it all. I did 3 closings after my full-time 8-5 job! The first went smoothly, but the second appointment....lender sent me to wrong house....it was a rental, and borrowers lived in another town. Luckily, not too far, so I went there too. Borrower was reading each page thoroughly while he signed! I made myself not panic, as they have a full right to do this, even when my time is limited. Luckily, he figured things were ok and got tired of reading....signed the rest of the package quickly. My last appointment was 3 blocks from my home, so that was my icing on the cake. People were great, luckily. I couldn't keep up this pace all month, but it was nice to make that much money in one day!
