What Loan company will take over my federal student loans when the loans are in default?
Q. What Loan company will take over my federal student loans when the loans are in default so I can go back to school? My loans are government loans from Saillie Mae. I owe them under $5000. I heard about this company that will take over your school loans from them but I don't know the name of the company. I am at the point where I can't get a federal student loan until I pay this off.

A. When your federal educational loans are in default, you have several options: You can repay the loan in full. You can negotiate a new payment plan with your lender. You can "rehabilitate" your loan. You can consolidate your loan. Obviously option one is rarely attractive or possible for defaulted borrowers. Option two (renegotiate) should be investigated fully - most borrowers skip this step, but it's probably the best option for most people. Call your lender and ask to speak to someone in the "Workout" Department. Explain your situation to them (there's nothing unusual about it) and ask what options are available to you for switching to a graduated, extended or income-sensitive repayment plan.

A. No one will "take over" your loans. You will still owe the money to your lender when you are in forbearance. They will simply add interest every month while you are making payments. If you are asking about defaulting the lender will just contract out with a collection agency to start calling and hounding you to mail them payments. If you make 6 to 12 months worth of willing and reasonable payments you can ask your lender to "rehabilitate" your loan. This is when you are issued a new loan and pay off the one in default so you can get federal fin aid again. Again, rehabilitation can only be done after you have made 6 to 12 months of payments.

How do construction loans work?
Q. My husband and I are working with a builder of a subdivision we are planning on building in. We chose a home from the options this builder has for the sub. To get started on the house, we need to give him $5,000 down. However we do not have the funds saved so we are able to do a construction loan. I've heard so many things about construction loans and how the fees are horrible. Yet, its been so hard for me to find any information. Would the fees be that steep, even though we only need $5000 down? Is there any specific banks/companies out there that make this process easier that anyone would recommend? Any help or information would be greatly appreciated. Thank You!
Asked by amber - Thu Aug 16 13:15:30 2007 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments
A. It doesn't sound like you are being required to get a construction loan. The builder is asking for an earnest money deposit. Typically, builders require $5,000 to start the home and would ask for an additional 5 or 10 during different phases of the project. If they are going to build something to your specifications, they want you to have enough money into it so you don't back out. The only financing you will need is a normal mortgage, once the house is complete. You will be able to use the money given to the builder as the down payment. Otherwise, you can buy the model.

A. A minor cannot enter in to a legal contract, so no lender will give you a loan until you are at least 18. Even then, without a co-signer, it will be very difficult to secure a loan without equity. You will need to have a job earning more than $1,000 and to be able to prove that you can pay back the loan. You can however get a federal student loan (without a cosigner) that you will never have to pay back as long as you meet regular admission standards. Apply at Student Loan.Gov at: or - or You won't need a cosigner for a federal student loan. Be aware that the max you will be able to borrow is about 3,500 a year as a freshman. This will likely pay for your tuition and books. Best of luck to you!

Paying the debt off will not get a judgment removed form your reports, but it will show it was paid off.

Asked by Nolita - Mon Oct 1 16:02:09 2007 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments
A. The student loan interest deduction can be taken in a year you make loan payments which include interest. It can be a year in which you or your spouse are working. It does not have to be a year in which you or your spouse were a student. The maximum student loan interest deduction per tax return is $2,500. If both you and your spouse have loans, and you can control when you pay, you would want to limit the interest paid to $2,500 per year if possible. Your deduction is limited if your income is too high. If you file a joint return, you qualify for the full deduction if your adjusted gross income is below $105,000. The deduction phases out completely if your income is $130,000 or more. There is a worksheet on page 30 of the… [cont.]

A. The student loan interest deduction can be taken in a year you make loan payments which include interest. It can be a year in which you or your spouse are working. It does not have to be a year in which you or your spouse were a student. The maximum student loan interest deduction per tax return is $2,500. If both you and your spouse have loans, and you can control when you pay, you would want to limit the interest paid to $2,500 per year if possible. Your deduction is limited if your income is too high. If you file a joint return, you qualify for the full deduction if your adjusted gross income is below $105,000. The deduction phases out completely if your income is $130,000 or more. There is a worksheet on page 30 of the… [cont.]

Can student loan interest be used as a tax deduction if the loans are in deferment/forbearance?
Q. I know that student loan interest can be deducted. My student loans are all either in deferment or forbearance. I'm accruing interest on some of them, but I haven't actually paid any interest yet. Can I deduct the interest that accrued? Thanks!

A. No, you can only deduct the interest when you actually pay it, not when it accrues

What is the difference between Ford loans and FAFSA?
Q. I know they are both federal loans but what makes them different? I have already applied and recieved acceptance for my fafsa but will I get more money if I apply for a Ford Loan? Also will the ford loan be more expensive than FAFSA?

A. The FAFSA is merely a FORM from which the Department of Education assesses your eligibility for Federal Financial Aid. Yes, all FEDERAL and most STATE aid in the form of either grants or loans come from that form! REPEAT: The FAFSA is a form that your FA Office will send to the DOE to see whether or not you are eligible for any grants or loans. Grants are NEED-BASED and never have to be paid back. Any LOANS you have to take out will go into repayment mode 6 months after you leave school or drop below 1/2 time.

Is it possible to consolidate student loans that come from different banks? And how would I do that?
Q. I have undergrad student loans from one bank that I consolidated, and then graduate student loans from another bank. I am graduating in August and at that point I would like to have them all consolidated so I am not paying 3 different people each month.

Are there any student loans that include the cost of paying off a car?
Q. I need to buy a new car, but I'm also planning on going to law school in Sep of 09. I'm planning on buying a modest entry level car for around 17-19km and planning to put 5000 down. However, when I go to school I wont be working and will still have payments. My question is, are there student loans available that could include the cost of paying off the remaining balance of the car at the time?

A. From what I know...you can use a student loan for anything you want. My boyfriend's parents used theirs back in the day to pay for their apartment when they were living and going to school together. I'm sure it's still that way but you gotta make sure you ask first! Also make sure that it has a low interest rate so they don't screw you over after you are done with school...I've seen that happen and it's not pretty! Anyways, I hope this helps! Good luck in law school!
