If not, then truly, do yourself a favor and get on board!

I use ZipFormOnline for my contracts, and through them, Docusign is available for $12.99 per month.  The federal government and the NC government have both approved the use of e-signatures, so why aren't more agents using them?

I've found that in working with a lot of out-of-state buyers and sellers that it's essential in being timely and on top of my game.  I no longer have to fax documents back and forth and back and forth, making them tiny and illegible. I can simply print to Docusign from ZipFormOnline or I can upload a .pdf file to Docusign.  There is a feature for ID verification if you're not 100% certain of who checks that email address, so you'll have peace of mind knowing the right person signed and sent back the docs.  Your clients take about 2 minutes to set up their account, then can cruise through the paperwork, clicking to initial and sign where you, the agent, have identified.  Don't know that I'd use this for first time buyers or sellers since they really need you in person-but for experienced folks who aren't available in person anyway-it's a treasure!

The only problem i've experienced?  Other agents.  They're not familiar with the technology and are scared that it's not legal (mainly because it's new and they haven't yet seen it).  The agents for whom I've held hands and walked them through the process are mostly excited to learn about it and how to use it.

Do yourself a favor and look into it-heaven knows I'm not cutting edge, so if I've got this in my arsenal you know it's going to be standard very soon. =)
