Grant Access to your Account

Collaborate With Others on HLM

If you work with a Transaction Coordinator, Assistant, or are on a team, you may want to give them access to your account. When you grant access to your account, you are essentially providing them with the ability to jump into your account from their account profile. This allows them to create and manage disclosure packages on your behalf. 

How It's Done

Step 1- Navigate to your Account Settings

Click on your name in the top right-hand corner of your screen and select the Settings option from the dropdown menu.
