a la mode, the US-based company behind the TourNarrator iPhone app for home tours, is expanding its “SureDocs” e-signature system to offer a version designed specifically for real estate agents.
a la mode explains that many users of SureDocs are real estate agents who are using it for contracts and disclosures. “Making a dedicated agent version was a natural next step,” the company states.
The new version of SureDocs, which will be available in the second quarter of this year, will allow agents to “print” any type of document, regardless of industry or source, so it can be displayed on screen ready for signing or transmission.
a la mode says that as documents are printed to SureDocs, the program learns the formats and recognises them on subsequent uses. So a contract from a given board or a particular state disclosure form only has to be set up for signature tags once. The next time the same type of document is sent to SureDocs, the program knows where all the signature tags need to be.
The creation of SureDocs for agents comes after the Federal Housing Administration confirmed that it now considers e-signatures on third party non-lender documents to be just as valid as “wet ink” paper signatures.
“Many of the supposedly paperless loan files out there are full of scanned copies of traditional paper documents,” says a la mode chairman Dave Biggers. “That’s both environmentally and financially expensive. With SureDocs, signatures are applied on screen to purely digital documents, which don’t need to be printed unless the user needs it. It’s better all around.”
The current version of SureDocs for disclosure documents costs US$299 per year.
