DocMagic is the Document Preparation market share leader, with 37.6 percent of the market comprised of banks, credit unions, and independent mortgage bankers according to STRATMOR Group’s 2019 Technology Insight Study.

A Document Library of 200,000 Forms and Counting!

DocMagic's massive Document Library is comprised of compliant forms and documents that meet almost every customer and industry need. By combining our Document Library with several different form-generation technologies we have developed and perfected in our 30+ years, we can implement forms and documents so that they behave identically throughout all the solutions we provide to our clients.

How do we maintain such a large Document Library?

Since 1987, we have amassed a library of over 200,000 compliant forms and documents ready to be implemented for our customers. These documents include thousands of existing forms along with the many forms we customize to fit a client’s specific needs. As we update and customize forms, we preserve all iterations of form changes that have been implemented so they're ready to be re-used as needed. 

With such a large number of forms, we’ve even developed an in-house tool—our Forms Analyzer—that indexes form content to make search queries for specific content. This allows us to quickly determine whether or not a customer will need an existing form or if they require us to customize a form for their specific use. We'd be surprised to see a document generation solution with a larger and more organized archive then we have today.

Keeping forms and documents compliant

Our years of experience in the industry have given us the time to develop a very efficient process to develop and release compliant documents and forms into production.

1. We use our Forms Analyzer to search through our document library and determine whether the form you need is a custom form or an existing form.
2. Then we determine whether the template and/or programming of that form needs to be modified for your specific use.
3. If a template needs to be updated, it is sent to our Forms Layout Team where they make the necessary changes before passing the work onto our Forms Programming Team.
4. If just the programming needs to be updated, the template is sent directly to Forms Programming where it's tested for performance assurance.
5. Forms programming then releases the form for further testing by our internal teams and/or the customer to ensure quality and complete satisfaction.
6. Once approved, Forms Programming will release the form into production for customer use.

All the forms in our standard library are backed by our reps and warrants to protect our customers. From Model Forms to Custom Forms—the Compliance Team meticulously scrutinizes all forms to ensure compliance with current mortgage laws and regulations. 

Forms flexible enough to fit our client's needs

Our processes for generating custom forms allow us the flexibility to handle specific requests from our customers. DocMagic can support your needs quickly and compliantly with:

1. Static templates
2. Fully dynamic templates (like the Loan Estimate or Closing Disclosure)
3. Hybrid forms
4. Forms in full color
5. Real signature images
6. Logo customization
7. And more...

TORRANCE, Calif., October 16, 2019—DocMagic, Inc., the premier provider of fully-compliant loan document preparation, regulatory compliance and comprehensive eMortgage services, announced the launch of its new LoanMagic mobile application. LoanMagic, which is provided free to all DocMagic customers, leverages a powerful backend platform that provides full interoperability with DocMagic solutions, as well as other third party mortgage software.

LoanMagic™ is provided free to customers as part of DocMagic’s strategy to increase adoption of digital lending.

“Bringing mobile functionality to borrowers and enabling lenders to connect with their customers is the end goal of most mobile applications in our industry—but at DocMagic, it is just the beginning,” says Dominic Iannitti, president and CEO of DocMagic. “LoanMagic isn’t an add-on. It’s a fully interoperable technology that fills a critical gap in the digital mortgage process. It is just as powerful as any of our flagship and award-winning technology.”

LoanMagic is an intelligent, intuitive mobile application that provides a quick, easy and transparent way for borrowers to stay fully engaged with their loans—and lenders—throughout the mortgage cycle. Its core functionality includes real-time loan status, document uploads, eSigning, integrated messaging, task management, push notifications and more. LoanMagic leverages DocMagic’s eVault to ensure that every transaction is logged and securely stored, and it uses a “gamified” design that encourages borrower engagement by making the process of fulfilling conditions faster, easier and more entertaining for the borrower.

LoanMagic’s primary differentiator is at its back end, which allows the mobile app to provide an unprecedented level of interoperability with numerous relevant technologies, ranging from DocMagic’s solutions to point-of-sale systems (POS), loan origination systems (LOS), borrower-facing applications, closing solutions, various settlement services technology, document scanning, cloud storage tools and others.

“A truly digital mortgage offers a continuous, fluid experience for everyone. The lender should not be patching holes or bridging gaps,” says Iannitti. “With LoanMagic, there’s no data degradation, no delay, no added steps lenders need to take to make up for the use of a mobile application, like they may have experienced with other mobile applications in the past. LoanMagic feels and acts like an organic part of the technologies it supports. That’s imperative for a truly digital mortgage experience.”

LoanMagic eliminates many of the issues that have traditionally caused delays in the mortgage process. The result is greater transparency and visibility, lower cost to produce loans, assurance of compliance and elimination of surprise issues that create delays at the closing table. DocMagic provides LoanMagic at no additional cost to its customers as part of its mission to increase digital mortgage adoption, broaden collaboration among the numerous disparate entities involved in a mortgage, and advance interoperability between systems across the supply chain.

Learn more about LoanMagic or see a demo by contacting sales@docmagic.com or visiting www.docmagic.com/loanmagic. In addition, DocMagic will offer demonstrations of LoanMagic in booth #407 at the MBA Annual Convention & Expo in Austin, Texas from Oct. 27 - 29.

Providing borrowers with a simple, streamlined eClosing process is critical in today’s competitive mortgage industry. From a borrower standpoint, eClosings can add convenience and improve the overall customer experience. For lenders themselves, they equal faster funding, greater flexibility, and better loan quality. Additionally, they also allow for quicker delivery to the secondary market.

Brian Pannell on the keys to successful digital implementation

Providing borrowers with a simple, streamlined eClosing process is critical in today’s competitive mortgage industry. From a borrower standpoint, eClosings can add convenience and improve the overall customer experience. For lenders themselves, they equal faster funding, greater flexibility, and better loan quality. Additionally, they also allow for quicker delivery to the secondary market.

Still, enabling eClosing is complex, and it takes the right partners — both up-front and downstream — if you’re going to do it right. HousingWire's Sarah Wheeler sat down with Brian Pannell, senior implementation executive at DocMagic, to find out how lenders are navigating these complexities and how DocMagic can help.

Q: What do lenders need to get started?

Brian: The first step is to have a clear picture of your loan lifecycle. To understand this, you need to know who will be funding your loans, who will service them, and who you’ll eventually sell them to.

If you’re planning to outsource any of these steps in the loan process, then you’ll need to know up-front and early on who those partners will be, as well as what technologies and capabilities they have at their disposal. Ultimately, they’ll need to be an integrated part of your loan system, with the ability to communicate securely, share and access borrower documents, and transfer eNotes securely.

Q: What technologies will I need to begin eClosings?

Brian: The most important technology you’ll need is a comprehensive, start-to-finish eClosing platform. The platform needs to take a loan from initial application, allowing you to upload or digitize existing documents for signature, all the way through the closing process, final notarization, and eventually, storing the loan, registering it with MERS, and delivering it to your secondary investor.

It sounds like a lot, but there are platforms out there can do it. It’s just a matter of finding the right platform, as well as a title company that’s accustomed to working within that platform on a daily basis. Your title company and your technology provider are your all-stars when it comes to your eClosing team. Choose them wisely.

Your eClosing platform should allow for:

Digital delivery of documents - You should be able to upload or integrate your existing documents, as well as auto-recognize and enable e-signature fields on them.
Pre-closing collaboration - The platform should allow consumers to view and sign initial documents and collaborate with their title company, the lender, and their attorney, if necessary.
Fully online closing procedures - Borrowers should be able to eSign their documents and have their closing paperwork notarized in a fully digital landscape. You should also have the ability to scan and digitize wet-signed papers, as well as register the eNote on MERS.
Post-closing wrap-up - Once closing is over, borrowers should be able to access their closing documents remotely. The platform should also allow for storing the loan via eVault and transferring the loan to the secondary market.

Q: What is one of the common hurdles many lenders encounter when implementing eClosing?

Brian: Once you have the technology in place, there are still a few hurdles that can hold up your eClosing efforts. One of these is that eNotary and eRecording services may not be an option, depending on where your borrower is located.

Nearly 2,000 U.S. counties currently support eRecording, covering about 85 percent of the population, but still, there are pockets where this process is not allowed. There are also 15 states that don’t currently allow eNotary services. Keep this in mind as you move to implement your eClosing efforts and as you communicate with borrowers about their digital expectations.

Despite this, we expect the eNote movement to continue growing across the country. Just this year, the industry has originated nearly 40,000 eNote-based loans, accounting for more than $8 billion borrowed. That marks a 200-percent jump in just the last few years. With more counties, states, and lenders entering the space at breakneck speeds, those numbers are poised to grow exponentially in the years to come.

Q. What are some critical implementation requirements organizations often underestimate?

Brian: What is oftentimes overlooked is the unwavering commitment lenders need to have to eClosing adoption. The directive to provide eClosings should come from the C-suite and trickle down to the operational level. When it does, executives, operations and loan officers are all kept on the same page. The motivations for each party may differ but the main goal remains the same.

During successful digital implementations, every key player involved realizes that this is transforming the business process, not just a sales cycle event. Management should also understand that going through the change in processes comes with possible bumps in the road but shifting to new vendor partners will ultimately provide a more efficient and better workflow — resulting in a better borrower experience.
