A Beginner's Guide to Low Interest Debt Consolidation Loans

Author: John Mussi


Looking for low interest debt consolidation loans can sometimes seem like looking for gold at the end of the rainbow, but loans with minimal interest can be had even by people with poor credit ratings.

The most important things in trying to find low interest debt consolidation loans are to know how to use your collateral correctly and to know the best places to shop. Don't be in a hurry to find a loan and miss out on a lower interest rate by simply taking the first offer that comes your way… shop around at different banks and lenders until you find the best loan for your money.

First you need to figure out the entire amount of debt that you want to consolidate, and also the lowest amount that you can get by on… while it would be nice to reduce all of your debt to a single monthly payment, you might have to pick and choose if your debt level is too high and your collateral value can't cover it.

Once you've determined about how much you're looking for, then it's time to head out and try to get one of the low interest debt consolidation loans.

Collateral matters

In order to get the best of the low interest debt consolidation loans, you're going to need good collateral. The most common collateral is automobiles and real estate, and with good reason… these types of property almost always have high values and are easily recognizable as sellable property by lenders if things should have to come to that.

Use the collateral object that has the highest value, and try to borrow less than that amount. The lower the amount you ask for in relation to the value of your collateral, the better chance you have of getting one of the low interest debt consolidation loans that lenders offer.

Finding the right lender

Different lenders can offer different kinds of low interest debt consolidation loans. Your best bet for finding a good rate comes from going to small local banks or finance companies… both of these are more likely to offer low interest debt consolidation loans that some of the larger chains of banks and lenders that get enough business that they don't need to offer you as low of an interest rate.

Try to go during a promotion that the bank or finance company is holding; they tend to offer special rates during promotions that you can take advantage of. If there aren't any promotions to be had, go anyway… even if they can't give you one of their low interest debt consolidation loans, they may be able to direct you to other lenders you should try.

Get quotes from several before deciding on the one for you, and get the best deal that you can.

Dear Anthony-

HELP I am in over my head and I obviously need help. I owe just over $12,000 on two credit cards.  I know in the past you recommend debt consolidation.  But, I have read about of the SCAM artists out there.   Is there someone I can talk to that you recommend?     -Dan, New York


There are a lot of things to watch out for when it comes to debt consolidation.  I have a company I wholeheartedly recommend to others in need of help.  I find them fair, easy, and they don’t use “high-pressure” tactics. Press the link below to check them out now.
