Debt consolidation is something a lot of people ask me about, and it is worth understanding how it works before deciding if it is the right move for you β
In simple terms, it means combining multiple debts into a single loan or repayment arrangement. This can make life easier by reducing the number of repayments you are managing each month. In some cases, debts such as credit card debt, personal loans, and car loans can be rolled into a home loan, which often carries a lower interest rate.
That said, it is important to go in with a clear picture of the full cost. While your monthly repayments may come down, you could end up paying more interest over the life of the loan if those short-term debts are stretched out over a longer period.
It is a strategy that works well for some people, and less so for others, and the right answer depends on your individual circumstances.
