subject: Can You Apply For A Debt Consolidation Loan With Poor Credit? [print this page] Author: Hector Milla Author: Hector Milla
A debt consolidation loan for a person with poor credit has for a long time been very hard to obtain. The reasons are rather obvious. Most lenders will consider a person with poor credit a risk. Such a person will normally have a history of either missed or delayed payments and there is no guarantee that the old problems will not be repeated when a debt consolidation loan is given. While this has been the perception of lenders in the past, recent developments have seen the rise of lenders who are not as averse to lending to people with poor credit as were lenders in the past. Aurora Lillo Editor of the "Best Debt Consolidation Services" website -- http://www.BestDebtConsolidationServices.net -- pointed out; It is possible to obtain a debt consolidation loan even if a person has poor credit. One of the reasons that has seen the growth of providers of debt consolidation loans to people with poor credit has been the understanding by lenders that most people with poor credit who go seeking consolidation loans are actually genuine people who would want to clear their loans. Such people could be lacking the skills necessary to manage their finances and for this reason end up such debt. When a debt consolidation loan is offered and proper management skills put in place, such people could comfortably repay their debts and get back on the road to proper financial management While in the past lending institutions have considered the person with poor credit a bad risk, what has not been appreciated is the fact that a loan for the person with poor credit is actually a bigger risk to the borrower. This is so because those lending to people with poor credit normally require some collateral. Thus a debt consolidation loan for a person with poor credit could be issued using the borrowers house as security. For a person with poor credit history, this can be a truly risky move as the possibility of losing the house for failing on loan repayments looms rather large. In addition to collateral requirements, debt consolidation loans offered to people with poor credit come at exorbitant interest rates and higher monthly payments added A. Lillo.
