Many people looking to take control of their debt would think that the best way to do so is through loan consolidation. For some, consolidating their debt is a great decision, but not the same can always be said for all situations. Here are four points to guide you before you make the decision.

The goal when consolidating debt is obviously to lower the rates being paid on loans, thus lessening the load we carry on our backs. While it sounds like a great move, be careful to see that the new loan would now take you longer to pay off than the original loan. Otherwise, it might cost you more in the end. Keep in mind that the more extended the period of time you have to pay the loan, the more interest you will have to pay. Additionally, if you miss payments, some creditors will charge you with a late payment fee, which will set you back even further.
You might have other choices on your hands aside from consolidation that would suit you better. For instance, some creditors are willing to reconsider the terms of your balances within reason. This way, you will not have to worry about the likely fees associated with consolidation.
There is also a possibility that including all your loans in consolidation is not the best move. You will want to consolidate the larger loans into a single monthly payment, and leave the low-interest rates out of the consolidation. If the rate of consolidation is higher than the rate of the original debt, then it would make no sense to transfer said debt into the new consolidated interest rates.
There are several ways on how you can consolidate your loan. The best way to go about it differs from person to person. You can choose to consolidate your debt with the following approaches:
Balance transfer. Balances from one or more credit card accounts can be transferred to a new, single credit card. The great thing about this is that balance transfer credit cards usually offer an introductory 0% ARP and if you pay off your balances before it expires, you will likely avoid having to pay for an interest charge on the transferred balance. However, some creditors may cancel the introductory ARP offer because of late payments, so you have to be sure to pay on time.
Home equity loan. Compared to personal loans and credit cards, these loans have lower rates. The cons of this are that the lender can start foreclosure proceedings if you fail to pay on time. You can be in danger of losing your home.
Debt settlement companies. Upon entering into an agreement with a company, you will start paying balances to the company instead of doing so directly to your creditors. The company will also negotiate with your creditors to accept a lower amount than what you owed.
When dealing with these types of companies, always lookout for scams. Steer clear of debt settlement companies that:
Guarantee settling your credit card debt for a lot less than what you originally owed
Want you to make a payment before settling the loan
Tell you that they can make your unsecured debt disappear
Tell you that you will finally be free from lawsuits or calls from debt collectors
Tell you to cut all contact with your creditors
Lastly and most importantly, the expected final outcome when consolidating is to erase all your existing balances or to at least reduce them. By consolidating your loans, you might feel the relief of finally receiving only one bill when you used to have a lot. This might make you think that the amount you will have to pay has decreased, and in turn splurge on yourself. This is, of course, false. It is ultimately up to you to control yourself from incurring more debt than what you originally had.

This means that it will not be permanent and you will still be able to rebuild your credit score.
This varies depending on the proposal you will be discussing with the help of a certified debt relief agency. It is also worth noting that debt consolidation cannot exceed more than 5 years.
If a debt is shared, you need to file a joint debt consolidation offer to your creditors. However, in most cases, in which the debts are individually incurred will have no impact on your spouse.
