Debt Consolidation

Print Page

A type of borrowing that takes several loans, often smaller unsecured loans and wraps them up with a secured mortgage (debt consolidation loan). This can be a good way of achieving a manageable monthly payment but will, in most cases, result in a longer paying back period and therefore increased costs over the life of the loan.
