What is debt consolidation?
Debt consolidation involves combining multiple debts into a single loan, typically at a lower interest rate. This may simplify repayments and could reduce total interest paid, subject to your circumstances.
Can I consolidate debt into my home loan?
If you own property with sufficient equity, you may be able to refinance and consolidate other debts into your home loan. This is subject to lender assessment and your individual circumstances.
Will debt consolidation save me money?
It may, depending on your current interest rates and loan terms. Combining high-interest debts into a lower-rate loan could reduce monthly repayments, though extending loan terms may increase total interest over time.
Does debt consolidation affect my credit score?
Applying for a new loan involves a credit enquiry which may temporarily affect your score. Consistently making repayments on a consolidated loan can have a positive effect over time.
How much equity do I need?
