Leveraging secure technology from Notarize, Momentum Title in Houston, Texas has successfully closed its first purchase transaction utilizing remote online notarization.

With the seller in a different country, Momentum Title closed their remote online purchase transaction by uploading documents for the seller to e-sign with an online notary. Momentum Title’s seller was in France and not coming back to the United States anytime soon. The seller contacted the U.S. consulate’s office in France and quickly found out there was a 2-month waiting period to have the documents notarized. Momentum Title’s role as a Westcor agent and Westcor’s partnership with Notarize allowed the seller to complete the transaction entirely online with digital notarization the next day.

“This is a tool that we can use to give customers the best service and closing experience possible, and the process is so easy. We were able to go online and watch the video of the whole transaction,” said Brett Barbisch, Senior Vice President and Escrow Officer, Momentum Title. “It was a great experience for everyone involved and our seller was ecstatic.”

“Westcor agents continue to have great experiences with remote online notarization. We will continue to help our agents utilize the RON technology platform to provide their clients and consumers the best experience when closing a real estate transaction,” said Scott Chandler, Chief Operating Officer, Westcor Land Title Insurance Company.

Westcor has partnered with Notarize to enable closing agents to facilitate online notarization in 29 states. Momentum Title is proud to be an agent of Westcor, ensuring that our clients receive the best service and have the best closing experience ever.
