Risks Associated with Secured Debt Consolidation
Consolidating many small debts into one large debt is well known
to be a good first step in getting out of debt, but that's not
to say that it comes without risk.
The main reason for this risk is that in order to secure a lower
interest rate (and thus a cheaper overall payment rate), you'll
need to present some sort of collatoral to back the loan.
In most cases, a person who has equity in a home or other
property can get a debt consoladation loan at an extremely
attractive rate, but they must make sure ahead of time that they
are fully able to keep up with the payment plan. If a borrower
is unable to keep up with the payments, they risk
forclosure
on their property. In this way, secured consoladation loans are
similar to home
morgages.
If you are unsure of your ability to comply with the terms of a
debt
consolidation loan, it is a good idea to seek some sort of
credit
counciling help, before you agree to anything.
