The decision to consolidate your bills into one payment can be a very wise decision if you have numerous open accounts. Many people choose to consolidate because of the simplicity involved in only having the one bill. Others like the fact that they do not have to pay various interest rates to numerous sources. In short, having the one bill makes things simpler. It also saves plenty of money in the long run, as it will be easier for a person to pay down one bill as opposed to many.

The number one way to get a debt consolidation loan is by using collateral, such as your home. Incidentally, consolidation loans are also sometimes known as Home Equity loans, because you are borrowing money off of the equity that you have earned in your home. Generally, the longer you've owned your home and the more money you've paid on it, the more you will be able to attain.

There are some catches to debt consolidation loans though. Due to the fact that your main reason for receiving this loan is to pay off your debts, many companies will place the money in escrow that will be paid out to the appropriate credit card and debt companies. This ensures that you handle all the bills that need handled and end up only having the one debt, which is your consolidation loan.

The following steps will be necessary in order to attain a debt consolidation loan through whichever lender you choose.

  1. Count everything up - If you want to get a debt consolidation loan, the first step is going to be finding out exactly how much you owe. You can do this by gathering all of your recurring bills (credit cards and loans) and adding up the totals. You will want to secure a loan for this amount or as close to it as you can. If you are not able to secure a loan for the amount of your debt, there is really no point in getting this loan to transfer part of your debt unless you will be receiving significantly lower interest than your current rates....
