What debt can Pacific Debt Relief help with?
Debt consolidation can include unsecured debt like unsecured loans. Unsecured personal loans can include payday loans, credit card debt, medical expenses, and other unsecured debt. Most Americans have multiple debts including medical expenses, credit card debt, and student loans.
Unsecured loans are those that do not have an asset backing it. For instance, credit card debt is unsecured while a mortgage is a secured loan. While student loans are technically unsecured personal loans, they do not fall into the unsecured debt category that Pacific Debt can help with. However, one of our student loan partners may be able to help you.
Different Types of Debt Relief
There are four basic types of debt relief services available. Here is a breakdown of the four and their potential pros and cons.
Debt Consolidation
In debt consolidation, you roll all your high interest debts into one personal loan with a better interest rate. You then focus on paying off the personal loan. The main concern is finding a personal loan with a better interest rate. Since interest rates are based in part on your credit score, it may be difficult to find a loan with decent interest rates if you are in poor financial condition.
Debt consolidation loan rates must be lower than your existing debts in order for you to see any benefits. At present, personal loan rates range between 3% and 36%. The better your credit score the lower the interest rate you will be charged.
There may be minimum credit score requirements of 600 or 620 to usually get the best interest rates. If you can not meet that minimum credit score requirement, you may want to focus on improving your credit score until you reach the minimum credit score requirement or even achieve excellent credit scores.
Taking out a personal loan requires several years of regular monthly payments and usually do not have flexible repayment options. There is usually not a prepayment penalty, but make sure to always read the fine print.
Personal loans for debt consolidation
If you are considering debt consolidation, you first need to decide how much you need to pay off. Choose the highest interest debt and add it all up. You now know how much you need to apply for and what interest rates to look for.
Look for personal loans from credit unions, online personal loan lenders, secured loans like a home equity loan, and online lenders like P2P groups. Keep in mind that these debt consolidation lenders will charge origination fees and these origination fees decrease the amount available to repay your debts.
Secured personal loans for debt consolidation
Taking out a secured loan to repay your debts is usually problematic. A secured loan has something guaranteeing you will repay the loan. This is commonly your house (home equity loan). Because the loan is secured, interest rates are lowered than unsecured personal loans. However, if you fail to repay this loan funding source, you may lose your home or other guarantee.
Credit card balance transfer
Besides taking out a personal loan, you may be able to use credit card debt consolidation. In this method, you may find zero balance transfer credit cards for consolidating credit card debt. You then can focus on making every monthly payment to pay off the zero balance transfer credit cards within the time limit. If you fail to pay off the consolidated debt within the time limit, the subsequent interest rates can be very high.
There is usually no prepayment penalty on balance transfer credit cards. Always make your monthly payment on time.
Debt Settlement
Debt Settlement may be a great option and involves negotiating with your creditor to lower interest rates and/or total debt amount and thereby save money. Once the debt is negotiated, the creditor is usually then paid off. This settlement technique can be used in conjunction with a low interest rate personal loan. At Pacific Debt Relief, you save money into a savings account with monthly payments. The negotiated debt is paid through this savings account and means that you do not have to qualify for a personal loan.
This does not require a minimum credit score, but does require a minimum annual income that allows you to make a fixed monthly payment to your savings account. Debt Settlement does come with potential tax liability and credit score decreases. You should contact a legal tax expert for more information.

Credit Counseling
Credit counseling involves learning how to better manage your finances and budget. You may be asked to develop a debt management plan that will help you repay your bills. It can include settlement and debt consolidation. You will also learn how to build a good credit score and credit report.
Credit counseling may be best for people who are just beginning to get into debt. However, even if you choose settlement or debt consolidation, credit counseling can help you stay out of debt in the future.
Bankruptcy
Bankruptcy is the last option to consider. Beside being expensive and time consuming, bankruptcy will most likely damage your credit and carries a social stigma. Always consult a bankruptcy specialist if you are contemplating this option.
