Defaulted on Loan

Hello,

I defaulted on a loan almost five years ago.  I need to get this account in good standing on my credit report because I would like to buy a house.   I can't just pay it in full it is $5,500.  Does anyone know if Pioneer loans have a rehabilitation program,Or Should I try and settle it.              

 

Thanks in advance for your anwsers

Re: Defaulted on Loan

Do you know if SOL expired? Save up the $5500 as fast as possible (you can always settle).

You probably can't get it in good standing if charged-off. I'd send PFDs with the settlement amount.

With the account being past the SOL they may be more likely to work something out with you.  They get paid something and you get your CR cleaned up a little.  It's a win/win.
