Why People Choose Debt Consolidation

People have many reasons to consider debt consolidation. Student loans, high-interest credit card balances, medical bills, and high-interest personal loans are all candidates for debt consolidation. Credit card debt is often the most common as they tend to have very high interest rates and large balances can become unmanageable. A growing number of people in the United States struggle with debt. Fortunately, debt consolidation with New Horizon Mortgage, Inc. can set you on a better path. Consolidating debts has many advantages including:

  • Lowering total monthly expenses
  • Increasing cash flow
  • Improving credit score by lowering how much credit you are using
  • Increase savings
  • Lowering the stress and worry associated with debt

How to Implement Debt Consolidation

Depending on the level of credit repair you need to make, you can follow a clear set of steps to pursue debt consolidation. Follow the steps below to first outline your debts so you can make an educated decision on your financial future.

1) Understand each debt you wish to consolidate and list out its current terms; include the monthly payment amount, interest rate, and total debt due.

2) Next, total the amounts of all debts due and your total monthly payment.

3) Review your debt consolidation options including payment terms, interest rates to determine which option is going to be most effective.

Taking Out a Home Equity Loan to Consolidate Debt

Home equity loans can be one of the most effective ways to consolidate debt. Home equity is the difference between the appraised value of your home and how much you still owe on your mortgage. If you have built substantial equity in your home, you can borrow some of that equity at a very affordable rate to consolidate your debts.

Home equity loans from New Horizon Mortgage, Inc. can either be given as a lump sum at a fixed interest rate, or as a line of credit known as a Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC). Home equity loans, either lump sum, or lines of credit, are second mortgages. Cash-out refinancing, a similar refinancing tool, replaces your existing mortgage with a new one. This is a primary difference between these similar loan types.

Home equity loans have many benefits including:

  • Large loan amounts (depending on equity)
  • Fixed rates and monthly payments
  • Longer repayment terms than other debt consolidation options
  • Low interest rates

It is important to note that home equity loans use your home as collateral, and longer repayment terms can lead to higher costs over time so be sure to speak to a trusted lender who can help you make the best decision for your debt consolidation goals.
