If you make one payment when payments are behind can this stop the repossession?

Check your loan contract, but in most cases (99.99%) if the payment does not represent the total past due amount, or if you do not have arrangements with the lender setting asside repossession actions in lieu of payment arrangements, no; one payment toward a past due balance will not stop or delay repossession of the vehicle.


Why is my final balloon payment on my GMAC smartbuy almost 1600.00 more after you subtract all payments from the original price of the car?

The payments you have made cannot be subtracted entirely off the original price of the car. Included in those payments were payments for interest on the loan that did not count toward the purchase.


Is it legal for a bank to take a portion of a check you sent them for the principal of your mortgage only payment and use it for future payments and interest for themselves?

It depends on your mortgage contract and other details. If you owe interest it can usually take that from a check you sent for principal only. You should review the documents you signed at the closing carefully for any section that deals with making payments toward the principal outside of regular payments.It depends on your mortgage contract and other details.

What are your rights as a consumer in the US as related to repossessions?

* You have the right to possess any vehicle you do make payments on or have paid for. * You have the right to retain possession of said vehicle provided you continue to make contracted payments toward the unpaid balance of the principle. * You have the right to have your vehicle repossessed if you fall delinquent on your vehicle payments to the contracted lender. * If your vehicle is repossessed, you have the right to recover any actual private property that was in the vehicle at the time of repossession. * You have the right to pay fees for recovering your property that was in the vehicle at the time of repossession. * You have the right to pay all unpaid balances and fees accrued as a result of the repossession process. That's about sums it up. I confess I did substitute "right" for "responsibility" in several places.


Why do interest payments decrease each month and the principal payment increases?

Mortgages are typically "front-loaded." That means the interest is paid more aggressively in the beginning of the life of the loan than the principal. As the loan matures, less of your payment is devoted to paying the interest on the loan and more is applied to your principal balance. It is important to mark extra payments as being toward the principal, otherwise your mortgage servicer may apply any extra payments as an additional monthly payment instead of reducing the principal.

How much extra payment toward principle would you have to make to pay off 30 year loan with 128000.00 remaining on loan making bimonthly payments at 6.42 interest in 5 years?

To pay off $128,000 in 5 years at 6.42% interest you would have to pay almost $30,000 a year ($29,996.08 if my calculations were right). Monthly payments would be $2499.68, so I suppose bimonthly would be $1,249.84. You did not say what your current payments are or if they are monthly, but you would have to specify that anything over your current payment would have to go to principal.
