How E-Signatures can Benefit Real Estate Agents
Before the days of e-signature technology, home buyers, sellers and their respective agents would need to review several physical documents and plan meetings to discuss and sign contracts in person. This process was much less than efficient and would end up costing more money in the long run (up to $20,000/yr).
Efficiency
Electronic signatures allow for increased efficiency and productivity by being easy to use and convenient. Agents utilizing an e-signature technology can create all necessary documents and contracts, and invite the buyer and seller parties to electronically view and sign what is needed.
Most e-signature platforms have the ability to require certain information be filled and signed before submission. This guarantees the documents are accurate and complete; and eliminates the reviews, revisions and back-and-forths between parties.
Having the ability for all documents and contracts to be filed and stored electronically greatly reduces the time spent organizing and handling the paperwork; allowing for more time to be spent on other important tasks.
Being more productive has never been this easy

Anyone, Anywhere at Anytime
The ability to e-sign a document from any location, and on any mobile device is one of the greatest advantages of e-signature technology. With this technology, there is no more need for clients to meet at an office or for an agent to spend valuable time scheduling the meetings, or driving to meet them. Each party is able to save more time and focus on other work.
Real estate is a timely matter. Delays in receiving a signed offer from a client could cost them the deal. E-sign technology eases that worry by allowing the designated party to sign documents instantly and sending it to the next party for signature, or back to the original owner. This negates bottlenecks that can happen with physical mail, faxing and printing.
Safe & Secure
These real estate transactions are often full of personal information that needs to be adequately protected. E-signature technology platforms are vigilant in data protection; so the agent, and their clients can feel at ease knowing their sensitive information is well protected by a secure 3rd party.
Having access to an electronic record of each document signed can ensure each party is aware of the terms and conditions, as well as providing a reference in case anything has been altered.
Ushering In Success
There are many reasons to consider utilizing an e-signature technology platform to help facilitate your business and it’s growth. Not only does it make life just a little easier, it can also end up saving time and money. The question now becomes, what e-signature platform should one choose to use?
