The majority of people who borrow money for educational expenses do so while they are still in school. After graduation, financial situations often change significantly. Refinancing to a Balloon Loan offers lower monthly payments, followed by a larger, one-time payment at the end of the loan. This allows you to start your career off with more manageable payments and pay more when you have had time to settle into your career.
