Suffering post-holiday panic?
When it comes to your personal finances, you might be
skeptical that borrowing funds to pay off your debt seems a little nonsensical.
But the reality is that a personal loan might be a perfect fit for you and just
the tool you need to assist you in getting your finances back on track in the
new year.
A few reasons that a personal loan might fit your current
needs are:
-
You need the funds quickly. Most of the
time, funds can be made available in a matter of days.
-
You have a strong credit score. The lowest
interest rates are reserved for borrowers who have good credit.
-
You want to pay off high-interest debt.
Personal loans are a good way to consolidate and pay off costly credit card
debt.
-
You'll use the funds toward necessary
expenses. Other good reasons to use personal loans include paying for
emergency expenses or remodeling your home.
Many people like the convenience of personal loans because
you receive your funds in one lump sum. And because you get the loan payment
all at once, it can be easier to make a large purchase, consolidate debt, or
otherwise use the loan all at once. Plus, you'll get a fixed interest rate and
predictable monthly payment, making the loan easier to manage, and helping you
to avoid late payments.
Personal loans also offer flexibility and versatility that
specific loans don't. For example, purchasing a vehicle is the only way to use
the funds if you take out a car loan. But you can use a personal loan any way you want - from consolidating debt to paying medical bills. Plus, these
loans often have a lower interest rate than credit cards.
Also, if your new year's plans involve making improvements
to your home, a personal loan can make sense, especially if the project adds
value to your home. You avoid racking up credit card debt or having to pledge
your house as an asset like with a home equity loan.
So how do you go about applying for a personal loan? To
determine whether you qualify, a lender will check your credit and income to
gauge your ability to afford the loan. Applicants with high credit scores,
strong income, and low debt usually receive the lowest rates. Personal loans are
installment loans; if you're approved, you'll receive a lump sum of cash that
you repay in fixed amounts on a monthly basis until the loan term expires.
