About this term

Digital closings use e-signatures and remote notarization to complete transactions online. Digital closings save time and travel; ideal for remote buyers/sellers. Some jurisdictions limit digital closing capability. Most modern transactions use hybrid approaches (some documents digital, some in-person).

Pro Tip

Digital closings are increasingly common; verify your lender/title company supports digital closing if desired.

Example

Buyer and seller complete closing entirely online using DocuSign and remote notarization without visiting closing office
