News : Mellody Hobson: Student Loan Consolidation 2007-10-26 18:04:00 For Graduates Paying Back Student
Loans, Condolidation Is a Must The June 30 deadline for college graduates, parents and students to consolidate their student loans to avoid rate increases is just two weeks away, and it's time to take advantage of consolidation if you haven't done so already. Loan consolidation refers to combining multiple educational loans into a single, larger loan that a student pays off each month. According to FinAid, two-thirds of undergraduate students graduate with some debt, and the average federal loan totals nearly $20,000 per student. What rate increases will take effect as of July 1? Rates on existing Stafford and PLUS loans (Parent Loans for Undergraduate Students) are variable and change annually on July 1. This year rates will rise a considerable 1.84 percent. Specifically: Rates on Stafford loans for current students or those in the deferment or grace periods (you have a six-month grace period after leaving school before you enter repayment) will Read more:Consolidation

Article : Students advised to consolidate loans 2007-10-26 17:46:00 The Federal Reserve projects interest rates will rise to 4.35 percent in 2006 By Julia F. Heming, Daily Staff Reporter on 4/6/05For many graduating seniors, the coming freedom of graduation will not only bring the stress of acclimating to a new setting, but also the worry of paying back student loans. But with the significantly low interest rates, these students could save money by consolidating their loans now. With tuition ranging from $8,202 to $13,730 for in-state students and $26,028 to $27,456 for out-of-state students, many students turn to loans to fund their education. In the last academic year, 14,200 students received some type of federal loan. These loans, which require repayment after graduation, are a common source of stress for recent graduates. The average debt of a graduating student with a bachelor’s degree is $18,900, while an average student graduating with a master’s degree has a debt of about $36,900. But students may be able to save money on Read more:Article
Article : Debt consolidation: cure or continued credit problems? 2007-10-26 17:35:00 By Jenny McCune • Bankrate.com Interest rates haven't been this low for decades, tempting some consumers to take on additional debt to ease existing credit
woes. The goal is to consolidate various higher-interest balances into one, easier-to-handle and less-costly package. But be careful of what looks to be a quick fix. "You're getting symptomatic relief, not a credit cure," says Chris Viale, general manager of Cambridge Credit Corp., a nonprofit credit counseling agency based in Agawam, Mass. This fighting-fire-with-fire approach can take several forms. There are debt-consolidation loans, balance transfers to a zero-percent credit card and home equity loans or lines of credit.But, says Viale, 70 percent of Americans who take out Read more:Article

Forum : Debt Consolidation Loans Home Student Loan Insurance Payday 2007-11-01 18:33:00 First comment from this forum :Franklin Debt Relief specializes in debt settlement , also known as debt negotiation, a process by which creditors agree to a lump sum pay off for a reduced amount in full settlement of a debt. In other words, Franklin Debt Relief negotiates with a creditor and once a creditor agrees to sufficiently lower the amount that a consumer owes, we settle it with a lump sum payment. In turn the creditor agrees to report to the credit bureaus that the consumer no longer owes them anything. As an example, our average client who owes $10,000 will pay just $4,000-$5,000 to settle the debt. When you consider the fact that interest was not accounted for, the savings are even more astronomical.see this forum at : http://www.onetreehillonline.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=72899&sid=53f49293858021bdfcfe3cdc39d204a5 Read more:Forum

Article : Is a Personal Loan the best way to consoldate your loan debt? 2007-11-06 10:44:00 By: VenturaA personal loan from a bank is usually the cheapest way of borrowing money open to most people.Personal
loans may be secured or unsecured. With a secured loan the lender has rights over certain property, like a car. An unsecured loan will usually have a higher rate of interest because it is a higher risk loan, which the lender would have more difficulty in recovering if you default on the payments.A personal loan gives you more protection if something goes wrong than a Hire Purchase agreement. You usually have an opt-out period in which you can change your mind without any penaltiesPersonal loans come in many guises; car loans, property improvement loans and college loans are just a few.A personal loan enables you to purchase what you need now and pay for it over the coming months or years. If you need a car now and you don't have the money now, a personal loan gives you the benefit of the money now, enabling you to buy the care, keep a job and pay off the loan.Personal lo Read more:Article

loans are a godsend for many students but they can be a curse for other students. The world of student loans is murky waters for the average person. Careful considerations must be given for the type of student loan, interest rates and method of repayment.Types of Student Loans
For students who qualify, government-subsidized student loans are relatively easy to obtain because the risk to the lender is low. They are also advantageous to the borrower because the interest rates are low compared to commercial loans; in some cases, interest rates are as low as 3 percent.Many government-subsidized student loans are tied closely to your eligibility for financial aid. Most students today have some kind of eligibility. Check with the financial aid office at your college about determining your eligibilities.There are four basic kinds of low-interest, government backed student loans for education. They are:-Perkins Loans-Stafford Subsidized Loans-Stafford Unsubsidized Loans Read more:Student Loans

Forum : What to watch out for 2007-12-03 06:57:00 First comment from this forum :" I think debt consolidation can be a good idea but there's a few things to watch
out for.1. Research the company before going with them. There's some shady "non-profit" business out there.2. Keep a close eye on the fees. The debt consolidation company shouldn't be putting you further into debt.3. Don't listen to the "lower your monthly payments". This just prolongs your debt. You're after lowering your interest rate, and applying as much as possible to the debt each month.4. Do NOT put your house up as collateral. If you can not pay for whatever reason, you can now loose your home."see this forum at : http://www.destroydebt.com/forum/t/475-what-to-watch-out-for.html Read more:Forum

Article : The Ultimate Debt Consolidation Refinance 2008-03-02 18:24:00 Submitted By: Tristan Huntsource : week, I'd like to share some customer experiences with one of the most popular new strategies in debt consolidation refinance. Over the last few months, a select few in the mortgage banking industry have developed programs which allow borrowers to accomplish the 3 greatest goals of debt consolidation: Get Cash to Pay Off High Interest Debt, Lower the Overall Monthly Minimum Payment, and Boost Cash Flow to allow borrowers to save up money in a short amount of time. The benefits are nearly indisputable: Higher Credit Scores, Lower Monthly Minimums, and Greater Flexibility. But one of the biggest criticism of debt consolidation is that borrowers who consolidated their debts were still not saving enough money after the refinance, and needed to tap i Read more:Consolidation
