Debt Advice: Home Loan for Debt Consolidation
July 5th, 2010 |

Debt Consolidation means that you are consolidating your total unsecured debt into one more manageable loan payment. Home Loan is another term for Home Owner Loan and are a way to consolidate debt by securing the debt against your home.
Due to the credit crunch and the increased cost of living, more and more people are experiencing problems with their finances and their income does not stretch far enough to cover their debts as well as basic living costs.
It is important to remember that not everyone is suitable for a debt consolidation home loan, so you should always seek expert debt advice before you proceed.
A Debt Consolidation Home Loan means that your outstanding unsecured debt will become secured against a high-value asset, most commonly your home or car. A debt consolidation home loan will work by using the equity in your asset to pay off your unsecured debt to leave you with one loan payment to make.
There are a number of further benefits of a debt consolidation home loan, such as you can reduce your monthly payments to your debt as you have consolidated your debt. As long as you make the payment to your debt consolidation home loan, you should no longer have to worry about missing payments and therefore being charged.
One important point about a debt consolidation home loan; this type of consolidation can only work if you no longer continue to spend on the credit cards or store cards that you consolidated. If you do then you will end up with even more serious debt problems. If you think that you would end up with this problem then you might want to consider consolidation alternatives, such as a debt management plan, IVA or even, in the most extreme cases, bankruptcy.

Help answer the question about debt consolidation
What is a reputable debt consolidation company?I fell behind on my credit cards when I had an emergency medical expense. Even though I have a steady job and income, they've raised the payments and dropped the limits so there's no chance I'll catch up. I want to do debt consolidation but most companies Google brings me are a scam. I know it ruins your credit, but 8 90+ past due accounts does that too. I've been unable to work out plans with them or find a second job. What is a reputable company?

See http://www.debtreliefprogram.esuperfind.com?id=ntth if possible they'll pay off your debt and you'll pay them off at a lower interest rate.
They don't service all areas but their forms are mega quick.
file for bankruptcy, and pay back your student loan slowly.
Budget, budget, budget. Until you come up with a written budget, you will continually find yourself in this situation. If you consolidate the debt but don't change your habits, you will end up with a big debt consolidation and just as much credit card debt. Refinancing is a bad idea because considering the mess you find yourself in, your interest rate could go up and you are going to add fees because of your refi. Since you have no equity in your home, you won't be able to get a HELOC or home equity loan.
Get yourself on a written budget, roll the high interest rate credit cards into lower interest rate cards, and get those debts paid off. Don't borrow any more money or you will just be spinning your wheels.
If you have $1000-1500 in an emergency fund that you only use for emergencies, this whole process will go much quicker. The problem with people trying to pay off debt is that they often times forget to set aside an emergency fund. When an emergency pops up, they have to borrow more money which bogs down the whole process.

First of all pay off as many of your smaller debts as you can before you buy a home, and close any credit cards that you don't use anymore, the more revolving debt you may have the more your credit hurts because they look at that as posible debt that you can have. Even if you have accounts that you are unable to pay off go ahead and close the account, you will still need to pay off the balance but it won't look like you can go a charge up a big balance. As for debt consolidation, I would only do the things that have large interest rate so that you have them all in one loan that has a payoff balance and the interest is not as high. Whatever you do get rid of the Credit cards you only need one, just don't charge more than you can pay off. I don't think that having a joint checking acount will be an issue with debt consolidation. Just sit down and look at all of your statements and balances and see what you can pay off in the next couple of months prior to buying a house, then in another stack decide what has a higher interest rate and balance.
Be wary of these debt consolidation companies they are in it for a profit also. Plus it somehow ends up costing people more money because the payoff was extended, therefore the interest being paid ends up being more, and make sure you read the fine print. My husband did this with a large amount of money and then in the end what was suppose to be a loan for only five years was going to actually end up being 11 years to pay off, at 13%. It had something to do with what they were sending us as the monthly payment amount with our statement. Kind of like paying the minimum on a credit card payment, I'm still not quite sure how they did it. The company at that time was MBNA and is now owned by Citibank.
If you can go to a bank and discuss with a loan officer what your options and take all your statements and everything they will help you more than anything.
it is called a debt snowball. Start with the smallest amount owed. Stay current with every one else and pay as much as you can on the bill.Sacrifice — brown bag lunches- no eating out rice and bean beans and rice till it is paid off. Then add what you were paying them to the next and then the next and so on. The reason for starting smallest to largest is you will feel accomplishment as each one bites the dust.
Good luck to you
