Consolidate Debt

Your number one choice for consolidating debt in Newcastle

Are you struggling with debt? Do you have multiple loans, and the repayments are getting out of control? Debt consolidation may be an option for you. Debt consolidation is a type of refinancing. When looking to consolidate debt, it is important to review all your current debts – car loans, home loans, personal loans, credit cards and store cards. These debts should be reviewed for their balances, interest rates and any terms and fees. We then work with you to find a lender to consolidate your multiple loans into one payment with a more competitive interest rate.

Debt consolidation can potentially reduce your interest rate from as high as 20% or more on some credit cards to a more competitive home loan rate of about 5.5% therefore helping you save. That’s where we come in. At Watson Mortgages, we help find you a competitive rate in Newcastle, the Central Coast, or the Hunter Region to consolidate your debts.

We help those struggling with debt increase cash flow by reducing their monthly repayments. Our mortgage brokers can find a competitive interest rate for your debt consolidation — with more than 30 lenders to choose from and close partnerships with local financial planners, lawyers, and bankers, we will find a loan to suit your needs.

Contact us for more information or book an appointment with our mortgage brokers in Newcastle. We’ll help you refinance to consolidate debt.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much debt can I consolidate?

The amount of debt you can consolidate depends on your circumstance. It depends on the equity in your home, your income, and other commitments. Lenders will generally let you borrow up to 80% of your property’s value, so if your LVR is more than 80% you may not be eligible for debt consolidation.

What loan is right for me?

We work with over 30 lenders with hundreds of products, so we are confident we can find a lender to help you consolidate your debt. We will discuss with you if you would like features such as re-draw, offset, fixed, interest only, principal and interest, or combination of the above. Depending on your answers we will match you with a lender and product that helps you achieve your goals of debt consolidation.

What information will I need to provide?

In preparation for your meeting with our mortgage broker we ask that you have ready the following information.

Can I access equity in my home?

When you refinance you can access the equity in our home. This could be used to consolidate debt, repair, or renovate your home, or potentially purchase another property. Refinancing to consolidate debt gives you the ability to access the equity that has built up in your home since purchase.

What is home equity?

Equity is the portion of your property’s value that you own outright. You can calculate your home equity by misusing your mortgage from the value of your home. For example, you house is worth $800,000 – $300,000 (mortgage) = $500,000 equity. The equity in your home increases as the value of you home increases assuming the loan value doesn’t increase.

What will the interest rate be?

Again, it depends on the lender and the type of home loan you go with depending on whether it is fixed, interest only, or principal and interest. With Watson Mortgages, our brokers will find loan options to help you achieve your home ownership goals. We will provide recommendations and advice, highlight the pros and cons of each loan, and guide you towards the option for which suits your circumstances.
