Debt Consolidation Loan | Getting Rid of High-Interest Debt

Debt consolidation helps take all of your high-interest bills and rolls them into a single, lower-interest payment. It can reduce your total debt and reorganize it so you pay it off faster. If you’re dealing with debt, a debt consolidation loan can help you reorganize multiple bills with different interest rates, payments, and due dates. Getting rid of high-interest debt is one of the single best uses for a personal loan. Personal loan rates are usually lower than rates of a credit card, payday loan, or other types of consumer loans.

THE PROS

• With a debt consolidation loan, you can use it to pay off your other debts, such as medical bills or balances on high-interest credit cards. You’ll pay fixed, monthly installments for a set time period.
• If you’re having difficulty keeping up with multiple payments from multiple lenders this may be a strategy worth considering if you want to lower rates, save money, or lower your monthly payments.
• Additionally, a personal loan may improve your credit score by moving credit card debt over to the installment loan. A borrower that uses the majority of their available credit on their card will see a lowered credit score.
• But borrowers beware…

A personal loan to consolidate debt only makes sense if you receive a lower interest rate than you have on your existing debt or if it helps you pay off your debt faster. Apply

NOT ALL DEBT CONSOLIDATION LOANS ARE CREATED EQUAL

• Some lenders carry fees called origination fees for their Personal Loan (we do not).
• Many online lenders charge an origination fee on a loan. The fee, usually from 1% to 6% of the loan amount, depends on your credit profile. This fee is embedded into the annual percentage rate (APR) that you receive when you qualify for a loan.
• Lastly, the best rates for personal loans will go to those with impeccable credit. If you have a limited credit history or a poor credit score, expect to receive higher rates than what is advertised.
