Over the years, Loantec has helped thousands of clients take control of their finances and get their debt under control. One of our favourite ways of helping clients manage their debt is with a debt consolidation. By combining all your loans, bills and even credit cards into a single, fixed-rate low interest loan, you can potentially reduce your repayments and save money.
To help you understand the benefits of debt consolidation, we have created this guide with everything you need to know to make an informed decision about your finances.
Ready to discuss consolidating your debts? Then contact us today and our Finance Technicians will go over exactly how we can help you with one of our debt consolidations.
How Do Loantec’s Debt Consolidation Loans Work?
The purpose of a debt consolidation loan is to combine all your current debts into one payment. By bringing all your individual payments into one, fixed-rate low interest repayment, you can potentially save money. It also makes it easier to manage as you’ll only have a single payment to make instead of multiple different ones!
To get started, the first thing our Finance Technicians will do is analyse your financial situation. Understanding your debts and various repayments allows us to find a debt consolidation solution that will save you money, without putting you into further financial hardship.
Part of our Loantec promise is that we’ll never push you into a debt consolidation that will end up costing you more. We’re dedicated to helping our clients get through their financial problems. So we only recommend these when we can see it will save you money.
What’s the Best Type of Debt Consolidation Loan?
To ensure we’re helping you the best way possible, we provide a range of debt consolidation loans to suit different circumstances. Everyone’s situation is different, so the right consolidation for one person may not be right for you. Our Finance Technicians will talk with you and present a range of options that will suit your situation the best.
Personal Loans
One of the most popular method of debt consolidation is combining your various debts into a single personal loan. These involve transferring all your debt, including credit cards, bills, and loans, into a single loan with one, fixed-rate payment. From there, you’ll only need to make a single payment per week or fortnight for the life of your new loan. No more multiple payments at various interest rates!
Home Equity Loan
Another option that’s a great choice is utilising the equity in your home to take out a loan and consolidate your debt. The benefit of this method is that you can often get great low interest rate options. Especially if you have a large amount of equity in your home.
The drawback though is that your house is at risk if you default on the loan. You should be confident you’ll be able to make your repayments before committing your home’s equity.
Credit Card Balance Transfer
Struggling under the weight of multiple credit card repayments? Then a credit card balance transfer might be the right option for you. Our Finance Technicians can help you get all your credit card debt into a single balance. Which will make managing your repayments simpler and more affordable. One thing to note though is that credit cards balance transfers will typically have a higher interest rate compared to other kinds of debt consolidations.
The Advantages & Disadvantages of Debt Consolidation
Debt Consolidation Advantages
The biggest advantage of a debt consolidation is saving money over the life of the loan. By putting all your debts into a single loan, you can potentially reduce your total interest and save hundreds or thousands of dollars.
Of course, having a single repayment means you won’t need to try juggle multiple payments and repayment schedules. This makes it way easier to budget and put money aside for a house or a holiday.
They can also help prevent you from going into bankruptcy or having defaults put against your credit file for missed or late repayments. There’s plenty of reasons a debt consolidation can be a great choice if you have a variety of different repayments!

Debt Consolidation Disadvantage
The main disadvantage of a debt consolidation is the potential early exit fees some lenders will charge. Our Finance Technicians take these into account when we’re calculating the costs and benefits of a debt consolidation loan.
