Debt Consolidation - Is It a Viable Option?

Debt Consolidation is a way for you to ease your monthly cash flow. By doing debt consolidation you roll all your smaller debts and loans into one big loan.

Usually the debt consolidation loan is at a much better interest rate than the smaller debts and loans which not only make it easier for you to pay, but also makes brilliant financial sense.

Debt consolidation also ensures that you only pay one installment toward your debt each month and not a whole lot of smaller repayments.

If you have a home loan debt consolidation is quite simple to do. As long as you have enough equity in your property you should get a second bond and use that to consolidate your debt.

Many companies also do debt consolidation in the form of debt counseling and administration...be sure to educate yourself on what each of these mean and what the implication would be before signing anything.

Review on the Advantages of Choosing SA Home Loans

SA Home Loans started granting bonds to South Africans since 1999 and since then has grown it's client base rapidly due to their innovative way of looking at home loans.

Some of the advantages of using SA Home Loans to get a bond approval are:

1. Criteria

They differ from normal commercial banks in that they will still consider you for a loan if you've had credit problems before, however, they need to be paid up and you must have the proof.

They have taken the stance that they will simply price the loan according to the client's criteria, but won't just give a NO if there is merit in the application.

Pricing the home loan would involve approving it at a higher interest rate or granting a lower amount or both, because of the risk involved.

Therefore, the applicant may only get a 80% bond.

2. Flexible Packages

Beware When consolidating debt

Always ask as many questions as possible, and if you can, get the advice of an independent person.

One of the pitfalls of debt consolidators is that they conceal Administration with debt consolidation.

If they put you under Administration it's a court order taken against you that for a certain period - minimum 5 years - you are not allowed to get any further credit anywhere.

They don't settle your debts!

These companies don't settle your debts, they simply make arrangements with the creditors to pay them off - unfortunately so much interest is charged that it's difficult to make a dent in the debt.

Make sure of your facts and always read everything before signing.
