Debt consolidation mortgages are a type of remortgage that lets you use the equity in your property to pay off any debts you owe elsewhere and then move them onto a single mortgage deal. To put it another way, it is debt consolidation with Home EquitSo in some cases, debt consolidation mortgages can simplify your repayments and reduce your amount of debt overall. It’s not for everyone.
Should I get a debt consolidation mortgage?
This is a personal choice however there are pros and cons you need to consider before you make a decision;
As explained before, borrowing and paying back money to multiple sources can be confusing and not easy to manage.
With a debt consolidation mortgage, you may be able to make repayments to a single lender which is simple and easy to get your head around. And also as a remortgage is secured on your property, the interest rates are generally lower than a credit card, payday loans and personal loan rates. This means that monthly repayments could be much lower with a debt consolidation mortgage than with unsecured loans and you could pay less in the long term.
On the other hand, there are cons to consolidation mortgages. Unsecured debts (like credit cards and personal loans) are not secured on your property. However, when you do a debt consolidation mortgage you convert those unsecured debts into secured debts. This means that you could put your home at risk. If you can’t afford to make the repayments, the lender may try to repossess your home.
The other point to consider is that whilst Personal Loans and credit cards might only have a short term to run, your mortgage, in contrast, could have a longer-term meaning you could in fact end up paying back much more in the long run.
