What should you do when you find yourself drowning in debt? Well the first thing is, try not to worry yourself into an ulcer. It took a while to get into this situation and it will take a while to get out of it again. Probably the best place to find information is the Internet. You can do a search for the term 'debt consolidation information' and you will find many websites containing excellent information. Your next step should be to gather all of your bills together and make a list, with those debts carrying the heaviest load of interest at the top of the list. These can include credit cards of various types. One of the problems people run into when they are in debt is not knowing exactly how much they owe, so compiling this information is a vital step toward a healthy credit rating. There are several ways you can go about repayment of your debt. The first method is simply paying back as much as you can on a regular basis -and this can be a successful way of doing things but not for everyone. You are probably better off if you work with a credit counseling firm that is experienced in working with credit card companies and other debtors. They have debt consolidation information that you may not be aware of. For example, many of us do not know that a credit card company will often agree to write off a percentage of the principal that you owe. They understand that it is to their own best interest to accept a portion of the principal rather than a whole lot of nothing. When you're looking for debt consolidation information, look into companies that offer all possible options for repayment, whether it is simple consolidation, such as a credit counseling firm does. Another option is the home equity loan. You can apply to your mortgage lender for that portion of your equity which will then be used to pay your debts in full. This may not be an option for everyone and you should think carefully and explore all your other options before choosing this one. This is not a 'money for nothing' type loan; your house payment will probably go up, and there are fees associated with loan processing and closing costs. It is certainly worthwhile to look into a home equity loan, as this may be a viable option for you. Debt consolidation information will vary from website to website. Take your time and weigh all of your options very carefully. You have taken the first step on the road back to good credit.
