What are the responsibilities and job description for the Settlement Closer position at Cross Key Management?
Sky Settlement Services is looking for a detail-oriented, organized, and professional Settlement Closer to join our growing team. As a Settlement Closer, you will play a key role in ensuring smooth and accurate closings for our clients. You'll receive a mostly completed file from our production team, but your expertise will be essential in tying up the loose ends-preparing final documents, balancing files, and conducting the closing process.
We are looking for a reliable and proactive individual with a commitment to delivering exceptional service. This position requires travel to closing locations, and for refinance transactions, this may include closing at the Buyer's home. A Pennsylvania Notary Public certification, valid driver's license, and reliable vehicle are mandatory.
Key Responsibilities:
-
File Review: Thoroughly review each settlement file to verify the accuracy, completeness, and presence of all required documents prior to closing.
-
Lender Coordination: Contact mortgage companies to confirm all details of the transaction are correct, ensure all documents are signed and notarized, and resolve any outstanding issues before the closing appointment.
-
Document Preparation: Prepare final closing documents, including the settlement statement, loan documents, and other necessary paperwork for the closing.
-
File Balancing: Ensure all figures are accurate and balanced before the closing, including collecting funds from clients when necessary.
-
Closing Conduct: Lead the closing, guiding clients through the signing of documents, answering questions, and ensuring the process goes smoothly.
-
Post-Closing: Disburse checks and ensure all files are cleaned up and finalized after closing.
Requirements:
- Pennsylvania Notary Public certification (additional compensation provided for Notary services)
- Valid driver's license and reliable vehicle (travel required)
- Strong attention to detail and organizational skills
- Excellent communication skills and ability to work independently
- Previous settlement closing or real estate experience is preferred but not required
At Sky Settlement Services, we pride ourselves on delivering a seamless, positive experience for all parties involved in the closing process. If you're looking for a challenging and rewarding opportunity in the real estate settlement industry, we encourage you to apply today!
