Why electronic signing is a non-negotiable in property transactions

In the world of property transactions, time is always of the essence. Contracts need to be exchanged quickly, documents need to be accurate, and your clients expect a seamless experience. That’s why electronic signing has shifted from a convenience to a non-negotiable for many New Zealand law firms.

At InfoTrack, we see first-hand how digital signatures are transforming the way legal professionals manage property matters, and why adopting this technology is no longer optional.

1. Clients expect a digital experience

We live in an age where groceries, banking, and even medical appointments are just a click away, so it’s no surprise clients expect the same ease from their legal services. When it comes to buying or selling property, no one wants to wrestle with printers or wait in line at the post office. Today’s clients want to review and sign documents on the go – quickly, securely, and entirely online.

2. Speed and efficiency are everything

Manual document handling slows everything down. When delays happen during property transactions, it can lead to frustration for everyone involved. Digital signatures eliminate bottlenecks by allowing parties to sign documents from anywhere, at any time.

This can significantly reduce turnaround times, helping you meet tight deadlines and progress matters without unnecessary administrative burden.

3. Built-in security and peace of mind

Electronic signing isn’t just about convenience, it’s about trust. With features like multi-factor authentication and comprehensive audit trails, firms can feel confident that documents are secure, signatures are authentic, and nothing slips through the cracks.

4. Keep everything moving, no matter where you are

The flexibility of electronic signing means distance is no longer a disruption, g, even if someone is travelling, working remotely, or living overseas. For firms, that means fewer delays, smoother workflows, and a more reliable revenue stream — all while delivering a seamless client experience.

5. Future-proof your practice

Law firms across New Zealand are turning to electronic signing to streamline workflows, improve client service, and future-proof their practices. As the legal industry becomes increasingly digital, firms still relying on paper-based processes risk falling behind. Those who embrace digital tools are moving faster, handling more matters, and delivering a better experience, all while positioning themselves for long-term growth.
