Income Driven Student Loan Repayment

Jose D.

Posted

Not sure where else to post this, so I'm posting it in the "Starting Out" section.

Am currently a W-2 federal employee and recently qualified for a public service loan forgiveness program. Basically, I am put on an income-driven repayment plan and I make payments for 10 years that add up to less than my total owed. The remaining balance after those 10 years gets forgiven.

My question is, has anyone else began investing in real estate while in one of these student loan forgiveness programs (not necessarily the one I am on as there are many)? And if so, did it affect your ability to remain in the program in any way?
