Consolidation Loan Pitfalls To Watch Out For

Credit card debt consolidation loans allow you to combine your debts into a single loan, with affordable monthly payments. The loan pays off the outstanding creditors and debts and transfers all debt to the loan. However, there are some things to avoid with credit card debt consolidation:

Variable Interest

This means the loan begins with a low interest rate, but it rises as the prime interest rate rises due to economic changes. With present low rates, the only change available is for it to rise. You should stick with fixed-interest loans. They may cost slightly more at the beginning, but you will most likely save money over the course of the loan.

Balloon loan

In a balloon loan, initial payments are low, but at the end of the period of low payments, typically 5 or 10 years, you must make a payment of the entire loan balance. This is often unrealistic and sets you up for failure unless you can double or triple your monthly payments.

Prepayment penalties

If your financial situation improves substantially, you want to be able to repay your loan sooner, or prepay it, without penalty. Double check your loan contract to avoid these kinds of penalties.
