| Debt
consolidation is a process by which a counseling company will negotiate with
all of your creditors to obtain the lowest monthly obligation needed to
satisfy all of your current accounts. Credit or
debt counseling has been around for over
forty years and is becoming one of the most popular solutions towards
reaching financial freedom and avoiding bankruptcy.
Unlike a
debt consolidation loan, the customer’s
debt is consolidated and interest rates are
often reduced without the need for a loan. This is done through negotiating
with the creditors rather than taking on additional
debt.
Debt consolidation services, or credit counseling, is often a "win-win"
situation for the consumer and the creditors. By working with the creditors,
a counseling service often helps the consumer by having their interest
charges reduced, their monthly payments minimized and the convenience
of paying all their
debts in one monthly payment. Meanwhile,
they are helping the creditor by assisting the consumer in setting up an
achievable payment schedule. Typically the bulk of expenses for these types
of programs are paid for primarily by the creditors.
