Washington Mutual

I just received a signing for a Washington Mutual loan.. I called the client to confirm the appointment. As we spoke he mentioned that he asked WAMU to do an "Easy Net Close". He claims he was told by the bank that he can sign off on the loan through the internet. How can they complete the notarized documents without actually witnessing the signing in person? Does anyone know about this Easy Net Close process?

In order to notarize a "e-closing" you have to be set up for "e-notarization" The system puts a time and date stamp on anything notarized. The borrower would show you (the notary) their ID and that information is entered into the system along with the borrowers thumb print.

The notary has to be set up with e-notarization to do that. It's a whole routine.

Just curious....do you know if you would work with Washingston Mutual direct or are there companies using e-notarization yet? I have been thinking of getting set up? Any help, info, or ideas would be great. Thanks!
