Sign into your accountFollow the Leader: Ken Moyle from DocuSign Leading Real Estate into Faster Transactions
February 18 2015
DocuSign Chief Legal Counsel Ken Moyle isn't necessarily a person that many in the industry are familiar with, but without him, real estate transactions would look a lot different today.
We all think of DocuSign as one of the leaders in digital transaction management, but few understand the pioneering efforts that Moyle and DocuSign have led on behalf of REALTORS®, home buyers, and sellers behind the scenes. I recently had the opportunity to speak with Moyle about these efforts and the future of online transactions.
Simplifying FHA Transactions
Over the past few years, the FHA has become a much larger force in the real estate business. As recently as 2010, the FHA lacked a process to handle transactions that were "DocuSigned." It didn't recognize the electronic signature as a safer, more effective, and more transparent way to fulfill the regulatory process.
Moyle spent 18 months educating and discussing policy with FHA representatives, including acting Director of Single Family Vicki Bott and Commissioner David Stevens. Today, REALTORS® are able to electronically sign an FHA transaction due, in large part, to the diligence of Moyle.
You might ask, as I did, how did he position himself so well to be able to have that kind of influence? Like anything, it came with hard work and persistence. Moyle had a leadership role in the National Strategy for Trusted Identities in Cyberspace (NSTIC). The group was formed to help individuals and organizations use secure, efficient, easy-to-use, and interoperable identity credentials to access online services in a manner that promotes confidence, privacy, choice, and innovation.
Moyle also has been involved with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) mortgage eClosing conversations.
