Government Student Loan Consolidation

by: Mark Lambie

Are you behind on your bills? Do you have more than one student loan? If you answered �yes� to either question there are some terrific opportunities for you to lump your debt together with a government student loan consolidation. Please read on for more information.

When you graduated from school, more than likely your first job was low paying and your expenses were high. It is not that uncommon for students to rack up bills of 30, 40, or 50 thousand dollars or more in debt, just to the school. Car payments, credit cards bills, and everyday expenses can push your debt levels up through the stratosphere. Time to think of getting some help. Time to consider government student loan consolidation.

What is government student loan consolidation exactly? It is a loan which allows for you to take multiple student loans, pay them off, and make monthly payments to just one lender. Why can this be a good option for you? Well, if you have four loans to four different lenders due at four different times of the month, it can seem as if you are always paying someone back for your schooling. Also, try keeping track of all this with your hectic schedule. Between work, family, friends, and all of life's responsibilities wouldn't it just be easier to have one simple payment to make? Yes, it would.

Another good thing about a government student loan consolidation is that you may be able to lower your interest rate, extend your repayment time, and take out little extra money to pay back other creditors. Maybe you have a credit card payment running you 19% interest. If you got a loan at a rate for half that rate, you would save money, right? Yes, you would.

Where do you go to for a government student loan consolidation? Search the internet! Leading companies are advertising their services to consumers and they are anxious for your business. Shop around and find the consolidation loan that is best for you. Some things to keep in mind:

1. Loan Amount. Will the company pay off all of your student loans, or a portion of what you owe? They may want to see pay stubs and other proofs of income first.

2. Loan Rate. Will loan rate be fixed or will it be variable? You may want to lock in a long term fixed rate to assure that your monthly payments remain stable.

3. Loan Term. Can you deal with paying back a your government student loan consolidation for as long as twenty years? Are there any prepayment penalties? What if you were to default on your loan? What then?

All in all, you have options to pay off your student loans that generations never had before. A government student loan consolidation may be right for you.

Debt Relief From Debt Consolidation
by: Jakob Jelling

If you are up to your neck in debt, there may seem like there is no relief in sight. In fact this is not necessarily the truth. There are ways to take all of your stifling bills and roll them up into one neat package by using debt consolidation in two very popular forms Home Equity Loans, Refinancing Loans, and a Consolidation Credit Card. All of these instruments provide the debtor with one thing �relief� from the current debt by shrinking it down to a single manageable debt.

Using home equity to consolidate debts

One of the popular methods of debt consolidation today is the Home Equity Loan. What happens is that the debt is extinguished using the equity from a homeowner�s home. A loan is created outside of the mortgage in order to satisfy the debts. Should the homeowner default on the loan, their house is in jeopardy of being foreclosed upon if that loan is not satisfied with a specified amount of time.

Refinancing loans

People often consume the debt by rolling it into a new mortgage. This way the house costs more money to the borrower, but the debt is extinguished at close and the debt is neatly rolled away into the mortgage securely. Upon settlement of the loan, the debts are paid in full and satisfied. The clock on the mortgage is reset to day one.

Credit card consolidation

A low interest credit card is offered to the borrower to include any outstanding credit and loan balances. The interest rate is a low fixed rate for a period of up to one year, upon the year�s end it will resume at its normal rate. Upon acceptance and terms the account should be closed once paid in full and payments be made directly to the new credit card provider. Some people have been able to master paying off one credit card with another to keep the debt revolving and interest rates low. Some people fail to close out the previous creditors account and run them back up again as well.

All three of these options provide solid relief for the debt and help them reconstruct and manage their debt better.
