How do I know if a lender replied to my scenario?
Check your e-mail for broker alerts from alerts@scotsmanloanpost.com.

You will receive an e-mail message each time a reply is posted to your scenario. Open the e-mail and click the "See the latest reply to your posting now! GO" link, which will take you to your scenario. Replies are displayed directly under your scenario. Broker e-mail alerts display best as HTML e-mails.

What information is in the reply?
The lender's reply will display the name and e-mail address of the account executive and the company's name and phone number. You can click the e-mail address to send a pre-addressed message to the lender. Click the underlined name of the company to visit the lender's directory page on scotsmanguide.com. There, you can see if the lender is a bank, a correspondent, a private lender or another entity. If the lender is a display advertiser, you can click the Display Advertiser icon on the reply to see its ad in our print edition.

How long does it take to get a reply?
Lenders can reply within minutes and for as long as you leave your scenario open.
