Cross Country Closers
Has anyone heard of them? They are out of Missouri. They are offering classes to become a mobile closer. Minimum closing fee you can earn, according to their website is $50. Another industry fee killer?????

Re: Prob NNA as they are NO NO NO !~ read more...
no it is their own program... I clicked around... it is not the usual stamp etc...
It is $2,000 for the course and you get a used (low level) brother printer, a ream of legal and letter and a journal....
and you have to already be a notary in your state... this is just the NSA portion....
btw, they claim over $100,000 profit in the first year....
any suckers... err takers????
meow YES

That's not what their website says. On the "Fees" page, they state:
----- ----- ----- •Re-furbished commercial grade HP 2-drawer Laser Printer, two re-manufactured toner cartridges.
•Brother Fax Machine with two new toner cartridges.
•Case of Letter-size paper.
•Case of Legal-size paper. ----- ----- -----
Not a Brother printer, but an HP printer. And a CASE of letter & legal, not a ream.
They also do not claim "over $100,000 profit in the first year". They made the statement, "Before we knew it, we were grossing over $100,000 per year in loan closings — not too bad considering the only real overhead was a dependable vehicle."
I'm not defending them as I have never worked with them for any reason and don't know anything about their background. But, I do think that if you're going to post information about a company, you post accurate information.

Read it thoroughly. Yep, in St. Louis two people might have made that once upon a time. The fees they quote seem reasonably close to SS market. However, St. Louis aside, MO's population is well-spread out and there are counties with maybe 7000 people in 'em. This business requires a large probably metropolitan population or it's strictly part-time or you are traveling for hours to do ONE.

Just skimmed through their website and found:
****An Independent Witness Loan Closing Agent will never close on a purchase loan.****
Anyone know if that apply to only MO?
****We'll teach you the "tricks of the trade" and provide you with an on-going support network for questions that may come up as you begin your new career.****
Who do you think their "on-going support network" is? Possibly....NOTARY ROTARY along with other forums.

It applies in NY for in-state purchases.
Purchases in NY are table-funded, so there are attorneys on both sides, olus a bank attorney and a closer representing the title company at the table. The closer is not just an SA - there's a lot more involved, and you need to be trained to do it properly.
Refis, 2nd mortages, HELOCs, and some out-of-state purchases can usually be handled by an SA, but unless you've been trained as a title closer you're probably not going to be doing purchase loans in NY.
