What is debt consolidation?

In Canada, debt consolidation can take a couple of different forms.

They include the following:

• Debt consolidation loan.
• Consumer proposal.
• A home equity loan, refinancing, or a second mortgage.
• Consolidating on a line of credit.
• Debt management program.
• Debt settlement.

Debt consolidation loan

Debt consolidation loans in Vernon have both benefits and disadvantages but is one of the most effective ways to pay down debt.

The objective of a debt consolidation loan, whether taken through a bank, credit union, or financing company, is to have a lump sum provided to your creditors to pay off your debt.

At that point, you simply make monthly payments to the financial institute.

Instead of multiple payments to various creditors, you are paying one single loan payment.

An added benefit is that debt consolidation loans are usually lower in interest than your credit cards, so it can be easier to pay down the actual principle instead of just the interest, which is a cycle many people in debt find themselves in.

This can be a great way to simply consolidate all your debt into one easy payment.

If you’re struggling with debt though, this may not be the ideal scenario since your credit score does need to be relatively good for companies to offer this option.

Consumer proposals

The least ideal scenario in consolidating your debt might be that of a consumer proposal, but rest assured that if you find yourself in this scenario, our objective Licensed Insolvency Trustees at Bankruptcy Canada will counsel you through what you can expect, as well as provide you helpful budgeting and credit counselling afterward.

In the event that you want to file a consumer proposal, a Licensed Insolvency Trustee begins a legal process in which all of your debts are consolidated into one, with an offer to pay creditors only a percentage of what is owed to them or to extend the time to pay off the debts.

In this scenario, you pay your trustee each month, and the trustee is responsible for making payments to each of your creditors.

If you choose this, your credit will be negatively impacted for many years, but you can sigh a breath of relief when you are making one lump payment each month to the trustee.

Other debt consolidation options in Vernon

The other debt consolidation options mentioned each have both disadvantages and benefits.

To know which of these would best fit your financial situation, discuss with a debt counselor what options you should take advantage of.

Being honest when you meet with a debt expert is essential in ensuring that you are provided the best option so that you don’t find yourself in the wrong debt consolidation program.
