Once a loan defaults, is it possible to get it out of default?

The accurate understanding regarding loan defaults is that it is possible to resolve a default situation, which means the answer should indicate that recovering from default is feasible. When a loan goes into default, the borrower can take specific actions to address the situation such as repaying the amount due, negotiating new payment terms with the lender, or entering a repayment plan. This process is often referred to as "curing" a default.

Moreover, various lending institutions may provide options for borrowers in default, including loan modification or restructuring, which allows them to bring their loans back into good standing. Therefore, it is generally incorrect to assert that once a loan defaults, it cannot be taken out of default.
