Debt
Consolidation Loan
One
of the best ways to improve your credit is to pay
off debts. Lenders advise that keeping a high debt
to income ratio will adversely affect your credit
rating. You should lower your debt ratio to below
45%. That is, reduce your balance on all revolving
credit accounts to below 45% of the available credit
limits. This is one of the most effective ways
to raise your credit score. If you are a homeowner,
it is very smart to pay off bills with a home equity
loan. If you have little or no equity, consider
a 125% LTV.
125%
LTV (Loan to Value)
125% LTV lets you
borrow up to 125% of your home's value. (LTV= Loan
To Value.)This loan is most commonly used to consolidate
debts. If you apply, this debt
consolidation loan will combine all of your debts
into one lump sum.
Pros
- Improve your credit
- No more phone calls from creditors
- One low monthly payment
Cons
- Interest
rates are higher than home equity loans and refinancing
- You
also may not be able to deduct the total loan amount
with a 125% LTV. In most cases the only thing that
you can deduct is the value of the home. Contact
your agent for more details regarding debt consolidation
loans.
