\"How<\/figure>\n

Anyone who has purchased a home knows there\u2019s a lot of paperwork to read through and sign at the closing table. But with <\/span>Redfin Mortgage<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>Title Forward<\/span><\/a> now offering fully digital closings, which allow homebuyers to close completely online<\/a>, the stacks of paper that have become a standard component of a home purchase transaction may soon be a thing of the past.<\/span>
\nSo, just how much paper would be saved in the U.S. if every single home closing was fully digital? Let\u2019s break it down:<\/span>
\nThere were about 6 million<\/span> home sales last year in the U.S. and about eight out of every 10\u2014roughly 4,800,000\u2014included a mortgage. For the sake of simplicity, we\u2019re limiting this analysis to home sales including mortgages. The total documentation required to close a home sale<\/span>\u2014<\/span><\/i>including the loan paperwork along with title, tax and various other legal documents<\/span>\u2014<\/span><\/i>generally totals around 200 pages<\/span><\/a>, according to Redfin Mortgage head Jason Bateman, though the pile of paper can be up to <\/span>2,000<\/span><\/a> pages. <\/span>
\nUsing a conservative estimate of 200 pages per home closing, that means Americans use 960 million pieces of paper per year on home closings. \u00a0<\/span>
\nThe typical tree produces about <\/span>8,000 sheets of paper<\/span><\/a>. That means 120,000 trees would be saved each year if every home closing in the U.S. were fully digital. <\/span>
\nTo take the analysis one step further, a mature forest has roughly 100 trees per acre. That means those fully digital home closings would save about 1,200 acres worth of forest every year. <\/span>
\nIn addition to the environmental benefits, fully digital closings can be quicker and more convenient than traditional paper methods. Homebuyers who use Redfin Mortgage\u2019s eClosing services, for instance, can usually close the sale in an hour or less, about half the time of an in-person closing. And an eClosing can be done from anywhere with a good internet connection and a webcam.<\/span>
\nRedfin Mortgage<\/span><\/a> offers fully digital closings in Texas, Virginia, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Minnesota, Maryland, Tennessee and Washington, D.C., and will continue to add states as they\u2019re allowed by law. <\/span>
\nHere\u2019s much more information<\/span><\/a> on the benefits of using Redfin Mortgage for a fully digital closing, plus step-by-step instructions on getting it done. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
