Modern lending is evolving rapidly, and commercial lenders are realizing the need to automate their closing documents process. The complexities of loan documentation are constantly increasing, and lenders need innovative solutions to overcome these challenges. Prioritizing compliance and enhancing operational efficiency are essential advantages of automating closing documents for commercial lenders.
Significant cost savings and consistently compliant 50-state document generation are equally important goals. In the tightly regulated lending world, even minor documentation mistakes can lead to severe consequences. Automated solutions like GoDocs provide a reliable way to ensure accuracy and consistency across all loan documents while also adapting to the specific requirements of each state. By reducing human error, lenders can minimize the risks associated with compliance violations and legal repercussions.
Here are the top 10 benefits of automating closing documents for commercial lenders. By embracing automation, lenders can ensure “always-compliant” loan documents, achieve cost savings, streamline operations, elevate document quality, minimize attorney fees, simplify compliance, and create a tailored closing ecosystem for commercial lending.
1.
Delivers ‘Always-Compliant’ Closing Documents
By outsourcing commercial closing documents, commercial lenders can benefit from “always-compliant” documents, eliminating the challenges of managing compliance independently. With solutions like GoDocs, lenders gain access to consistent and easier compliance methods, ensuring reliable processes and in-depth compliance knowledge. Real-time updates provided by cloud-based technology allow lenders to stay current with evolving compliance requirements. By outsourcing to GoDocs, lenders ensure compliance while saving time, reducing costs, and focusing on core business operations.
2.
Lowers Staffing Costs & Workload
Outsourcing closing documents not only reduces the workload but also lowers staffing costs for commercial lenders. Automation streamlines tasks such as document scanning, data rekeying, reviewing and correcting documents, and incorporating compliance requirements, resulting in a more efficient process and significant overhead cost reduction. Real-world case studies have shown cost savings exceeding $300,000 per month, enabling lenders to allocate internal resources more effectively and operate competitively in the high-volume commercial real estate market.
3.
Simplifies Lending Timelines
Outsourcing closing documents through cloud-based automation providers simplifies lending timelines by streamlining the entire process. Integration with Loan Origination Systems (LOS) eliminates duplicate data entry file export/import time and reduces review time and human error. Even without an LOS integration, advanced automation tools allow direct import of CSV files, offering benefits similar to integration. Streamlined lending timelines enhance operational efficiency, customer satisfaction, and overall competitiveness, positioning lenders as industry leaders. GoDocs’ powerful API stands alone as the sole purpose-built API in the market, specifically designed to cater to the unique needs of commercial lenders.
4.
Generates Closing Documents Faster and Better
Utilizing automated and outsourced closing documents enables commercial lenders to generate documents faster, ensuring higher quality and reduced risk. Automation providers like GoDocs generate standard or complex loan documents in as little as 10 minutes, eliminating the need for attorneys and their longer turnaround times. By streamlining the document generation process, lenders expedite closings, respond swiftly to market demands, and protect their company’s interests while achieving better outcomes.
5.
Eliminates/Reduces Closing Attorney Fees
Implementing an automated and outsourced closing document solution eliminates or significantly reduces closing attorney fees, resulting in substantial cost savings for commercial lenders. Negotiations involving multiple attorneys in the traditional closing process can be costly. With an attorney-vetted automation solution like GoDocs, lenders reduce reliance on this process, leading to significant savings. Lowering attorney fees not only improves the lender’s bottom line but also enhances their competitiveness and attractiveness to borrowers in the commercial lending market.
6.
Manages and Streamlines Loan Volume Spikes with Ease
An automated loan document solution effectively manages and streamlines loan volume spikes without the need for significant staffing increases. Automation provides scalability to handle fluctuating loan volumes efficiently, enhancing financial stability and operational agility. During economic crises or volatile market conditions, lenders can navigate turmoil while controlling overhead costs. By managing loan volume spikes without immediate staff expansion, lenders demonstrate adaptability, meet client demands, and optimize operational efficiency using technology as a strategic advantage.
7.
Enhances the Quality of Closing Documents
Automated closing documents enhance quality by ensuring consistency and accuracy throughout the lending process. Loan doc automation software, such as GoDocs, generates documents with high clarity and conciseness, eliminating potential human errors and reducing time and expenses associated with attorney involvement. Reliable compliance, real-time updates, and maintaining high-quality documents contribute to mitigating risk and protecting the lender’s interests. Automation empowers lenders to navigate legal requirements, reduce costs, and improve overall operational efficiency.
8.
Eliminates the Need to Manage Templates for 50 States
By adopting an automated system for closing documents, lenders eliminate the burdensome task of managing templates for multiple states. Automation covers all 50 states and provides near real-time updates, saving work hours and eliminating the need for manual template management. Compliance remains a priority, ensuring adherence to regulatory requirements across all states. The convenience and efficiency of automated closing documents save time, reduce errors and maintain compliance, empowering lenders to focus on their core business and achieve seamless, reliable, and compliant closing documents.
9.

10.
Delivers Exponential ROI
Implementing closing document automation delivers a substantial return on investment (ROI) for commercial lenders. Cost savings through reduced attorney fees, streamlined processes, and optimized resource allocation contribute to a positive ROI. Additionally, automation improves efficiency, allowing lenders to handle more loan volume with the same or fewer resources while increasing their customer base by offering faster turnaround and higher-quality customer service all around. With the ensured cost-savings, commercial lenders are embracing a newly developed profit center opportunity by leveraging automation.
