Sign+ email templates FAQ's

1. What are Sign Email Templates? What can it do?

Sign Email Templates is a feature within Sign — allows for Principals, agents, admins, and assistant agents to send templated email notifications to vendors, purchasers, and other signatories after signing and exchanging documents.

Such templates include: Thank you emails, contract request emails, offer letters, sales advice, conditional and unconditional exchange letters, and/or anything that may be required of the agent after accomplishing an agency agreement or contract.

Sign Email Templates is an automated system, meaning you can trigger the sending of these templated emails directly from your document in Sign. Details are pre-filled based on the document that you are working in, and all placeholders and automated data points will pre-fill with the correct client details when it's time to send. Just choose your template, review it, add any other points you deem necessary (if any), and send.

Sign Email Templates eliminate the wasted time between email systems, documentation, and other data systems. Everything is centralized and in one place, meaning you and your team can sign agency documentation for property and send out relevant correspondence to parties involved in minutes.
