The closing experience is one of the last opportunities lenders have to make a positive impact on a borrower, but an easy, painless signing experience that allows consumers to choose how and when they want to close has been missing from the mortgage loan process.
After witnessing firsthand the growing need to deliver a seamless signing experience for businesses and their customers, a unique team of industry veterans created The Closing Exchange.
“Our experience across multiple industries and at various parts of the value chain led us to build a technology and services model to enable our clients to transform their closing experience in a practical and flexible way,” said The Closing Exchange CEO Alan Frelix.
The Closing Exchange built CXChoice, an integrated signing services platform, to finally fill the void in the industry for a modern closing solution and give users a dynamic platform that allows them to tailor their closing services to their customers’ needs.
CXChoice provides flexibility and multiple closing options, including mobile notary, eSignings, Remote Online Notarizations (RON) and hybrid closings. Frelix explained that the solution is a combination of technology and managed services, putting the power in clients’ hands.
“The software provides the user with the ability to define their experience, leveraging our professional vetting and compliance, client-specific signing agent training, and our eClosing facilitation services,” Frelix said.
CXChoice can be customized to a client’s workflow and transaction-specific requirements, so they can conveniently adjust to any type of closing option the customer might need.
Clients benefit from an effective deployment of their eClose strategy, with simple APIs that allow frictionless integration with transaction management platforms. With consumers constantly needing a uniquely tailored closing experience, businesses need to be able to quickly adapt without having to worry about investing in the technology or infrastructure to support each type of closing.
Through the power of CXChoice, every company can become e-enabled, allowing them to focus on offering the best closing experience possible for their customers.
