Posted - 11/12/2008 : 08:44:35 AM I was an original signing agent back in 1989 and the starting signing fee was $50.00. I have been out of the signing business for around 2-3 years. Just wondering if anyone is actually making a full-time living at this. All of the closing of title companies, signing services, etc. really make it hard to know who to work for.
Any comments are welcome

Posted - 04/29/2009 : 6:45:52 PM In April I heard from so many new signing companies. I'm not sure if these companies are brand-spankin' new; or if they are just calling me for the first time. I had to turn most of them down due to other commitments so I didn't get a chance to look them up to see if they were reputable companies or not. If it happens again in May I'll do more research.

Posted - 03/26/2009 : 12:35:59 PM I am glad companies are calling. This month has been very busy. The majority of the people are willing to pay.

Posted - 11/18/2008 : 07:46:51 AM I don't go back to '89, but in '93, I was doing loan signings in borrower's homes. Docs were always overnighted and pay was better than it is today. I only did one $50 signing...the first one. When I declined the next one due to distance, they asked me what I would accept...and negotiation was born. However, the volume was FAR LESS than even what I am doing these days. Meaning it's possible that we haven't hit bottom yet.

Posted - 11/15/2008 : 11:14:30 PM Advertise on this website to get business. Call Carment Towles and she can help you on how to advertise. I am curious what kind of signigs you did in 1989 almost 20 years ago?
Were they at the borrower's home or at a escrow office, title/ lender,etc? Just curious.

Posted - 11/13/2008 : 4:21:31 PM Sounds like you got out when it was really good. Right now, it's really NOT.
That being said, I'm waiting for the next up-tic, which, I'm certain will happen. The question is exactly when. Personally, I believe that things will "magically" get better on innauguration day. Not because of anything being done, but rather because consumer confidence will return...
