How does appointment scheduling work for mortgage?
Missed appraisals push closings; missed signings blow rate locks. The assistant knows both and watches the dates. Bookings land in Calendly, Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 and are mirrored into the LOS file as a milestone note, so the processor sees the signing date without asking. Reschedules are handled the same day with the borrower, the title company and the loan officer all told once. At shift end you get a list of tomorrow's appointments, who confirmed, who did not and what was rebooked, and the team lead reviews no-show reasons weekly.
