Hi, I received a email from the Loan officer requesting me to sign a Fixed/Adjustable Rate Note for a 10/1 ARM.Apparently I did not provide the date on the document when it was singed during closing. It has been close to 3 weeks since closing and now they are asking me to sign this doc. Am I obligated to sign?
Your lender or closer cannot require you to sign any document which modifies the terms of the agreement post closing. However, in most closings you will sign a document which states that you will cooperate in signing or making any administrative changes to the documents to ensure the lender has a complete and correct closing file.
If this note contains the agreed upon terms you should sign it if your lender is attempting to force you to sign something that changes the agreement then you should refuse.
Good Luck.
