operations summary
Yrefy, LLC (pronounced “why refi”) enable distressed borrowers to refinance their student loans at prime borrower rates. Borrowers who find themselves in this situation are typically paying interest rates north of 20% and in many cases are at the maximum usury laws in the state they reside. The average Yrefy borrower’s interest rate is 3.9%. The Company believes that it can lower a borrowers monthly payment by approximately 40%-50%. Additionally, Yrefy, LLC reports the new loan and payment history to the credit agencies which may improve borrowers/co-borrowers FICO scores.
Yrefy, LLC targets delinquent and defaulted borrowers whose primary/largest debt is their student loan debt. Approximately 68% of the borrowers have co-borrowers whose credit is being damaged by non-payment of the outstanding loans. Both the borrowers and co-borrowers are highly motivated to take advantage of the opportunity to refinance their outstanding student loan debt at a rate that will enable them to pay off these loans.
Yrefy, LLC, on behalf of the Company, can offer these low rates because we are able to buy the existing loans at a discount from the current lender/loan servicer. These are non-performing loans where borrowers have often not made a payment in 6-12 months or longer to their existing lender. Yrefy SLP4, LLC passes a portion of these savings on to the borrower to create a manageable student loan payment amount. Yrefy SLP4, LLC offers these borrowers a payment program that fits within their budget. We believe the Yrefy SLP4, LLC program is truly unique in that it takes subprime borrowers and refinances their student loan debt at interest rates typically reserved for only the most creditworthy individuals.
A typical private student loan debt borrower will have $29,800 in private education loans, and some may have as much as $300,000. The initial interest rate on private student loans varies widely depending on the lender and borrower but can be as low as 3.8% and as high as 14%, with most having variable rate loans. Borrowers who are in collections or who have a judgment against them may have an effective interest rate in excess of 20%. Sometimes the interest rates may reach maximum usury rates.
Borrowers with private education loan debt, unlike federal education loan debt do not have access to federal programs for balance or payment relief on the debt, and student loans, federal and private, are rarely dischargeable in a bankruptcy. Benefiting from the experience and lender relationships of Yrefy, LLC, Yrefy SLP4, LLC will originate a Refinanced Student Loan by paying off the Existing Student Loan creditor at a significant discount, and through Yrefy LLC’s detailed underwriting process based on the real creditworthiness of the borrower and/or co-borrower, offer a Refinanced Student Loan with better fixed interest rates and payment terms for the borrower and/or co-borrower, which Yrefy, LLC believes will lead to better performance and lower rates of default.
The payoff percentage of the Existing Student Loan(s) will differ based on the lender, state of the collection efforts, and motivation of the original lender/loan servicer. Based on Yrefy SLP4, LLC experience as well as the experience of the management team, after over four years of operations between Yrefy, LLC and affiliates, As of January 2021, payoffs are averaging 38% or $0.38 on the dollar.

He was also the CEO of a debt settlement company which is relevant to this project because negotiation methods with student loan lenders are very similar to negotiating general consumer debt.
