A quick way to ease pressure from
mounting credit card debt.
Usually does not have a negative impact
on your credit score, or your ability to get financing.
Creates possible tax breaks. (Consult
your tax advisor for information concerning your
situation.)
Cons:
Increases your financial risk by
securing your unsecured debt with your mortgage deed.
May have to pay a high commission to a
broker or loan officer. The amount of money you have to
pay back is usually substantially more than a debt
management or settlement program.
Weakens your financial portfolio by
using an asset to pay off revolving debts.
Leaves your vulnerable, because you
cash in an asset that could be used to handle a more
urgent emergency.

or taking out a Second Mortgage may be right for you if…
