I am having trouble making repayments on my loans, should I get a debt consolidation loan?If you have a number of debts and are having trouble managing them all, then a debt consolidation loan may be your only option.Essentially, a debt consolidation loan is a secured loan tied to your property. This means that all your unsecured debts such as credit card bills, are now held against your property, and by obtaining a debt consolidation loan you will be putting your home at risk. This is why it’s essential that you can afford the repayments for the new consolidated loan, otherwise you may end up homeless. Alternatively, you could approach a Debt Management Company such as Gregory Pennington or Baines & Ernst. Debt Management companies deal and negotiate with creditors on your behalf to agree lower instalments. They will calculate a single, affordable monthly payment for you based on your individual financial circumstances. Your Debt Management Company will manage the distribution of this payment to each of your creditors. A monthly charge is often included in your agreed monthly repayment for the service provided by your chosen Debt Management Company and terms and conditions will apply.
