15 Oct Mobile Closings & Remote Notary Services: Convenience Meets Confidence in Real Estate Transactions

What Are Mobile Closings and RON?

A mobile closing allows a title agent or notary to bring the closing directly to the client — whether that’s a home, office, or coffee shop. Instead of meeting in a traditional office, clients can finalize their real estate transaction anywhere convenient.

In comparison, Remote Online Notarization (RON) takes it a step further by allowing documents to be signed and notarized virtually using secure video conferencing and digital verification tools. With RON, the entire process — from signing to notarization — happens online.

As a result, both options give clients flexibility and control while ensuring compliance with Tennessee title and notary laws.

Why Mobile and Remote Closings Matter

The real estate process can be time-sensitive, especially when working with multiple parties — buyers, sellers, lenders, and agents. Mobile and RON services eliminate scheduling roadblocks and make closings more efficient for everyone involved.

For Real Estate Agents

• Close deals faster. Avoid delays waiting for office appointments — your clients can close when and where it fits their schedule.
• Deliver white-glove service. Offering flexible closing options helps agents stand out and provide a seamless client experience.
• Reduce last-minute issues. When access to notaries is simplified, you minimize missed signatures or rescheduled closings.

For Mortgage Lenders

• Accelerate funding timelines. Mobile and remote closings keep loans on track and reduce turnaround times.
• Enhance borrower satisfaction. A smoother closing experience means better reviews and stronger borrower relationships.
• Maintain security and compliance. With digital verification, RON transactions meet state and federal security standards.

Benefits for Homebuyer and Sellers

• Convenience: Schedule closings around your calendar — not ours.
• Speed: Avoid extra travel and paperwork delays.
• Security: Remote notarization platforms use encryption, identity checks, and recorded sessions for compliance and peace of mind.
• Flexibility: Whether in another state or simply across town, you can close where it’s easiest.

How RON Works

The first step: Identity Verification: The signer’s ID is verified using knowledge-based authentication and photo validation.

Second: Video Session: The notary meets the signer via live video conference to witness and record the signing.

Third: Digital Signature & Seal: Once verified, the notary applies a secure digital seal, and the document is instantly completed and stored.

RON is fully approved and recognized in Tennessee, making it a reliable choice for clients who prefer digital transactions.
