The Rewards of Brewer Mississippi Student Loan Debt Consolidation

If you have variable interest rate student loans issued between July 1, 1998 and June 30, 2006, then student loan consolidation can simplify your payments and save you money. The interest rate is reset annually at a rate not to exceed 8.25%. If the rate is currently lower than that and rates are falling, consolidating can lock-in that lower rate on your older loans. By consolidating, you will also simplify your loans by making just one or two payments a month instead of several. Many lenders also offer additional discounts for automatic payments and after a period of on-time payments.

If your loans were issued after July 1, 2006, then your rate is fixed, but consolidating can still reduce the number of payments and extend your repayment term. Discounts for on-time and automatic payments may also still apply.

Especially, if you are close to paying off your loans, you might end up paying more interest when you applying for consolidation.

At the time of your demise, your loans are forgiven, but your spouse would still be under obligation to pay the full consolidated balance if you combine your loans into one. If you are unable to make your home loan payments due to the additional cost of student loans rolled into the balance, you have a very good chance of losing your home.
