Getting rid of bed bugs without getting into debt
Financial surprises can take unexpected forms and bedbug infestation is a prime example. It isn't something that you would normally put into your budget. The cost of dealing with a bedbug infestation can be astronomical. In some cases one would need some form of financing. Rather than taking on more debt, it may be prudent to look into the selling of an illiquid asset such as a pension, structured settlement or an annuity payment.
Bed bugs, like a hole in the roof, are not something that you can put off addressing. Like head lice, bed bugs feed on human blood and even though bed bugs are not known to spread disease they can cause both physical and mental health issues. Physical problems can come in the form of secondary infections of the skin such as ecthyma and lymphanigitis. The presence of bed bugs can also cause those dealing with them elevated levels of anxiety or insomnia.[1]
The cost of eliminating a bed bug infestation can be much higher than that of the typical pest because many infestations may require multiple visits. After the extermination treatment, all clothing and linens of the infected residence must be washed or dry cleaned to help insure successful removal. With prices for a professional extermination service ranging from $250 to over $1000 per room, treatment costs can balloon quickly [2][3]. You don't want to risk getting behind on your bills while you are working to maintain the value of your home, regardless of the type of repair. Whether it is your roof, floor or major appliance; repairing or replacing them may be an unexpected expense that could hurt you financially.
Funding emergency repairs or overdue maintenance on your property shouldn't be at the expense of other financial responsibilities. Consider all of the possibilities including selling a portion of your future payments. According to John Zepeda, Vice President of Rescue Capital, "Many people come to us looking for ways to finance home repairs including extermination services. Some do not realize they can sell part of their annuity or pension payments for cash and avoid accumulating high interest debt." Selling payments from structured settlement annuity isn't the first thing that most people think of to help them through an emergency. However, in most cases, it can help lessen the financial impact of resolving the problem.
