Job description

Are you someone who takes pride in getting the details exactly right? Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment where accuracy isn’t just important, it’s everything?

If you have experience preparing mortgage documents, especially within a mortgage law firm environment, and know your way around Texas loans, this could be a great next step.

About the Company:

For over 50 years, our client has been a trusted partner to residential mortgage lenders, delivering timely, accurate, and compliant closing documents. With over 5 million loan transactions completed, they’ve built a reputation for reliability, expertise, and consistency in a highly regulated industry.

Location & Work Model:

This role is remote for candidates outside of Texas. For those located in the Houston, Dallas, or San Antonio areas, a hybrid work schedule is required.

What We’re Looking For:

We’re seeking a Mortgage Document Preparation Specialist to join a highly skilled team. In this role, you’ll be at the center of document operations, ensuring accuracy, compliance, and efficiency across a wide range of loan types. From VA and FHA to Conventional and Texas-specific loans, you’ll be the go-to expert for all things documentation. Experience working with Power of Attorney, LLCs, and Trusts is key to success in this role.

What You’ll Do:

• Review, prepare, and audit mortgage loan closing documents with precision, ensuring compliance with Texas mortgage laws
• Serve as a trusted resource for clients and internal teams, providing guidance on loan documents and closing instructions
• Navigate a variety of loan types including VA, FHA, Conventional, Manufactured Housing, and more
• Work through complex ownership structures including Power of Attorney, LLCs, and Trusts
• Stay current on industry regulations and compliance standards to maintain best-in-class document quality

What You Bring:

• A sharp eye for detail and an unwavering commitment to accuracy
• Prior experience as a Mortgage Closer with hand on loan document preparation experience
• Experience in mortgage document preparation, ideally within a mortgage law firm environment
• Strong knowledge of Texas mortgage laws and closing requirements
• Hands-on experience with Power of Attorney, LLCs, and Trusts (required)
• Proficiency in Microsoft O365 (Outlook, Word, Excel)
• Familiarity with multiple Loan Origination Systems
• Experience reviewing title commitments and surveys
• Solid understanding of TRID regulations
• Construction loan experience is a plus

Why This Role Stands Out:

• Flexibility with a remote or hybrid work environment depending on location
• Be part of a company with deep industry credibility and stability
• A collaborative environment where your expertise is valued and trusted
• Opportunities to grow your career within a specialized, in-demand field
• Competitive benefits including PTO, medical, dental, vision, 401(k), and more

If you’re someone who thrives on precision, enjoys solving complex documentation challenges, and wants to be part of a team that truly values quality, this is a role worth exploring. Apply now and let's build something great together.
