Debt Consolidation Loans - Debt Consolidation is also available in the form of a loan, secured against an asset, like your home or property. Sometimes unsecured loans are available. Using the convenience of a single monthly payment, this type of loan is used to pay off multiple debts by securing lower interest rates or lower fixed interest rates. A Debt Consolidation Loan also has its risks. If you take out a loan against your home or property and you are unable to maintain the loan payments, you risk foreclosure on your home or property.

Debt Management Plan (DMP) - This is the recommended method used by our lawyers and other Credit Counseling Agencies. With a Debt Management Plan (DMP), Debt Consolidation is done without a loan. We call this type of Debt Consolidation without using a loan, a Debt Management Plan (DMP). Consolidating your debt using a Debt Management Plan (DMP) allows you enough room, in your budget, to pay off your debt. All your unsecured debts are consolidating into one payment, paid monthly. When you work with our lawyers, we may be able to negotiate better repayment terms, for you, based on our relationships with creditors. The consolidated monthly payment we set up for you will usually be less than what you paying, in total, for all of your debts, previously.
