Hello, i have a question on default consolidation. I am currently in student loan rehab for 5 months. I am trying to get an fha loan for a condo, but I have to get this default off my credit. I want to get it off before 4/30 when the 8k tax credit ends. I will not be done rehab before then, so if I consolidate the loan through the government or pay it off now how will the trade line on my credit be listed? Will it still list default an disqualify me for fha? Can I ask the lender to list it as not defaulted before the rehab is complete if I pay it off now?
