How it works

The closing table is wherever you are.

The last step of a Jakelo mortgage is as digital as the first. Review your final terms in plain language, e-sign your package, and close with a licensed online notary — from your couch, if you like.

How an online close works

Sign, notarize, done — remotely.

Remote online notarization lets a licensed notary verify your identity and witness your signatures over secure video. Your documents are e-signed and recorded without a single sheet of paper.

  • Review locked terms in plain English before you sign
  • E-sign your full package on any device
  • Close with a licensed online notary over secure video

What to expect on closing day

No surprises, by design.

Terms locked in advance

The rate and fees you saw are the ones you sign — what you see at the start is what you sign at the end.

Identity verification

The online notary confirms your identity securely before witnessing your signatures.

Secure video session

You complete the notarization over an encrypted video connection at your scheduled time.

Instant record-keeping

Signed documents are stored and recorded electronically — no mailing, no scanning.

Your advisor on call

Have a last-minute question? Your licensed advisor is a tap away during the close.

Then, the keys

The only step that was never digital is moving into your new home.

Good to know

Common questions.

Is an online closing legally valid?

Yes. Remote online notarization is legally recognized in a growing number of states. Jakelo confirms availability in your area during the process.

Do I need any special equipment?

Just a device with a camera and an internet connection. The secure video session runs in your browser.

Will the terms change at closing?

No. Your rate and fees are locked in advance, and Jakelo shows them the whole way — what you see at the start is what you sign.

Can I still talk to a person during the close?

Absolutely. A licensed advisor is available by text, phone, or video throughout your closing.
