What Is a Loan Signing Package?

A loan signing package is the collection of documents required to finalize a mortgage loan. It includes the promissory note, deed of trust, closing disclosures, and various federal and state disclosures. These documents must be signed by the borrower and notarized before the lender will fund the loan.

What's Inside

A typical loan signing package contains 100-175 pages:

Promissory Note — Your promise to repay the loan

Deed of Trust / Mortgage — Gives the lender a security interest in the property

Closing Disclosure — Final loan terms, costs, and cash-to-close

Right of Rescission — 3-day cancellation period notice (refinances only)

Compliance Agreement — Address verification

Borrower's Certification — Statements about occupancy, income

Tax Authorization — Allows lender to verify tax returns

Hazard Insurance — Proof of homeowner's insurance

Initial Escrow Disclosure — How escrow payments work

Plus 20-50 additional documents depending on lender and loan type
