Non-borrower signing

As notaies, we try to complete the signings to the best of our ability. When it comes to who should sign what document, i. e. , finanicals, etc, why doesn't the escrow company or who ever makes out the documents print the name under the line where they are to sign. This way there would be no missed or added signatures. This would only require the company that generates the docs to do their job. We do ours. We all know that the application must be signed by all involved parties but most errors that occur are missed or added signatures. I think they need feed back from us but the signing companies don't want to dictate to their customers.

I've always thought it must have something to do with

the document drawing software... Maybe titlegal has some input on this...

It's my understanding this is ususally a software issue.
That is why I have made a point of learning what is required to be signed as a NOBs in my state.
It is helpful to learn to decipher the closing instructions, as often NOBs information is included there.

As a former employee of several title companies, I can tell you it is a software issue. The problem is that software people write software. When I worked for PTC my biggest complaint about their new software was that they didn't have a computer literate escrow officer work on it with the techs. The software engineers that write the software are only as good as the people explaining what the program needs to do.
