Debt
Management
The
term "debt consolidation" is being used and abused by many banks
and mortgage brokers in order to sell you a high interest 2nd mortgage
or to refinance your home. Remember, going further into debt does
not get you out of debt.
Debt management enables you to solve the underlying problems of
high debt without taking drastic steps such as declaring bankruptcy
or committing yourself to a long-term debt consolidation loan. It
involves a negotiated agreement between you and your unsecured creditors,
whereby
| You
agree to:
|
|
Your
creditors agree to: |
-
Pay,
on time, a lower monthly payment you can afford while
meeting your other living expenses.
-
Stop
using your credit cards or increasing your debt.
|
|
- Reduce
the amount of your monthly payments to one you can afford.
- Eliminate
or reduce your high interest rates.
- STOP
late and over limit fees, as well as, other charges.

Nonprofit organization
such as The Credit Counseling Foundation, will provide FREE

How
it works
The
process is simplified into one convenient lower monthly payment
that you can afford. This one payment satisfies all of your unsecured
debt obligation and other living expenses.
Benefits:
- Late
and over limit fees are very often eliminated by making regular
monthly payments on time.
- Delinquent
accounts become re-aged to current status again enabling your
credit rating to be saved.
