Debt.com’s resolution specialists will evaluate your debt, credit and budget for free to help you identify the best solution (or solutions) for your needs.
It sounds too good to be true, it’s not. Consolidation rolls similar debts into one monthly payment that is typically less than you paid before. This works for credit card bills, student loans, and even back taxes. If you do it right, you won’t hurt your credit score, either.
So, how do you do it right? Debt.com will show you how to consolidate your debt by yourself, or how to consult a professional who can walk you through it. Even if you go your own way, it doesn’t hurt to consult a certified credit counselor for free debt analysis.
You can also learn about other options like a debt management program or debt settlement. But first, find out if debt consolidation is right for you.
Finding Relief through Debt Consolidation
Debt consolidation takes multiple debts and rolls them into a single monthly payment. This simplifies your bill payment calendar, so it’s easier to keep up with your debt each month. At the same time, you reduce or eliminate interest charges applied to the consolidated balance. This allows you to get out of debt faster, because more of each payment goes to eliminate principal. You stop wasting money on accrued monthly interest charges. What’s more, in many cases, you may end up paying less each month and still get out of debt in half the time.

Consumer debt levels are now higher than they were at the start of the Great Recession, and default rates are approaching pre-recession levels, as well.
