Slash Post-Closing Time by 60%: How Mortgage Teams Are Automating Closing Package Reviews
Mortgage Post-Closing Is Broken. Here’s How AI Fixes It.
For mortgage teams, the post-closing phase is one of the most exhausting and error-prone parts of the loan lifecycle. Reviewing hundreds of pages, checking for compliance, and ensuring every signature and page is correct often means spending 40 to 80 minutes per loan file—sometimes more during month-end surges.
That’s valuable time your team could be spending closing more loans.
With Areal Closer Copilot, lenders are cutting post-close time by 60% or more—without sacrificing quality. It’s time to take a hard look at post-closing automation and how it’s changing the game for mortgage operations.
What Slows Down Mortgage Post-Closing Today?
The typical post-closing workflow includes:
Reviewing 400–600 pages per loan
Identifying and flagging missing signatures, documents, and notary stamps
Matching data points across CDs, promissory notes, and title commitments
Sending manual emails to escrow or title to request corrections
