 05  Do debt consolidation loans work?

Debt consolidation doesn’t work because you end up paying about the same amount. The truth is that you cannot borrow your way out of debt.

 

You may be tempted by the companies that claim to be able to clean up your credit. Don’t go there. There are two basic problems with these companies. First, for purposes of getting a mortgage, going through companies that take your money and pay your bills will reflect on your credit as if you filed a Chapter 13 Bankruptcy. Secondly, only transactions older than seven years, or a mistake, may be taken off your credit report. A company that says otherwise is either lying or operating illegally.

​

Our Debt Free coaches can help you avoid debt CONsolidation loans.
