It has been observed that with falling house prices and banks' becoming twitchy to lend, it has become harder for Britons to remortgage – one good option to raise cash. However, there are other alternatives that can help you reschedule your debt.
Tens of thousands of Britons today are struggling with debt averaging £30,226 (including mortgages), according to a report by Credit Action. The Christmas of 2009 has already hit Britons hard - almost 6.5 million fear that they’ll not be able to pay their bills at the end of January. At the same time, the continually soaring petrol, food and energy prices are piling pressure on already strained family budgets with increased utility bills and other basic living costs, forcing them to find a debt solution.
Bankruptcy
In the current financial climate, when people are unable to manage their debts, the ultimate debt solution that comes to their mind is bankruptcy. It is important for you to know that bankruptcy should be the last resort. It involves hefty up-front fees and strips you off of all your valuable possessions. It can be difficult to get credit in future and the stigma it carries may affect job applications. ‘Then what is the best solution to my debt problem?
Individual Voluntary Agreement - IVA
One of the debt solutions is the Individual Voluntary Agreement. An IVA avoids the humiliation of bankruptcy; you continue to own your valuable possessions. This legally binding contract can only benefit those who have over £15,000 of unsecured debts. It commits you to repay a portion of what you owe over a period of time making you debt-free in five years. In return for that commitment, creditors usually agree to suspend interest charges and write off a slice of your debts. But if the payments are not kept up you may end-up in deeper problems, may be bankruptcy and a big black mark on your credit rating.
