When you consolidate debt with a debt
consolidation loan you basically replace
many smaller loans and outstanding debt
with one larger, more manageable loan.
Instead of trying to manage all those
different loans and risk, you can have a
single loan with lower monthly payments.
You can either use a secured or
unsecured loan to consolidate your debt. We'll explain the differeces below:
The secured debt consolidation loan
With a secured debt consolidation loan
you basically give your property as
security against the loan, hence the
term secured loan. Should you not be
able to pay back the loan, then you run
the risk of losing your home.
However the interest on a secure debt
consolidation loan will be much lower
due to the security the bank has in the
form of your home. You will also qualify
for a much higher amount than would be
the case with an unsecured loan.
Consolidating debts into home loans will help you have better cash flow at the end of the month due to the low repayment needed.
Should you consolidate your debt into
your home loan it is always advisable to
repay the debt over the short term,
rather than capitalizing it over a 20
year term for example.
The unsecured debt consolidation loan
With an unsecured debt consolidation
loan you will be granted finance without
having to put up collateral (security).
This will protect your property from
being repossessed should you not be able
to repay the loan.
However, because of the higher risks
associated with such a loan you will
have to compensate the bank for such a
risk by paying a relatively higher
interest rate than the rate charged on a
secured option.
Generally speaking, you will not qualify
for a large sum of money for the
purposes of debt consolidation without
any form of security.
The kind of debt consolidation loan that
best suits your needs depends on your
individual circumstances and remains
your choice.
