Insolvency and Home Equity Loans Can Be Harmful

Bankruptcy and home equity loans endanger your home. Dependent upon which chapter of bankruptcy you file, your home could be sold to repay debts. Missed payments on home equity loans can result in foreclosure. Credit Solutions’ unique debt-relief service eliminates these risks with a proven and effective method of becoming debt free.

Tapping into your home’s equity is not a smart way to address your credit woes. But that’s exactly how home equity loans work. Your debts are consolidated into a single payment, basically credit based on your home’s equity. This is the source of a major amount of credit, so you could eliminate debts quickly through this method. But if you fail to repay your loan, you could lose your home. Also, you still have to pay the entire debt amount, plus interest, on your home equity loan. Repayment terms range from five to 15 years, which is much longer than our debt relief service.

Our debt-relief service can save you time, money and stress while settling your debts. We work with your creditors to lower your credit card debt. You can settle your debts in 12 to 36 months, forgoing the long repayment term associated with home-equity loans.

You could also lose your home through bankruptcy. Under Chapter 7 bankruptcy, a trustee collects your assets and sells them to pay your creditors. Whatever debt is left over could be wiped away. However, in addition to your home, your car, clothing, jewelry and other possession can be sold. Your debt may be settled, but your life will be destroyed. A home is more than shelter. It provides a sense of security for your family and is your largest single investment. Don’t sacrifice your home over debts.

It is not worth the potential pain and strife of bankruptcy. It won’t turn around your credit quickly. Bankruptcy will stay on your credit file for 10 years or longer. You will be disqualified from loans and some jobs during that time.
