IVA – Individual Voluntary Arrangement

IVA or Individual Voluntary Arrangement are legal processes that can take the place of bankruptcy which were brought about as part of the Insolvency Act 1986. IVA's were originally introduced by the government as a business insolvency solution, but they found that higher and upwardly spiraling consumer debt led many non-professionals to seek the IVA option as an alternative to bankruptcy. An IVA is a legally binding contract between you and the companies you are in debt too. An IVA means you are in debt and owe money. An IVA will allow you to reach a compromise with the people or business you owe money too. By doing this the IVA will reduce your debt to a level which is affordable to your income. The IVA will eventually clear your debt over a fixed number of months usually within 5 years. An IVA specialist like the team at Finance INC can help you understand your debt and calculate an affordable repayment level, which is fair to both you and the debtors to which the IVA will relate.

debt consolidation

What is a debt consolidation? Debt consolidation is simply a repayment plan where someone who is in debt to many different debtors, can group each individual debt into one single larger debt. debt consolidation creates one single debt which is then paid for by taking out a debt consolidation loan. debt consolidation usually takes place when someone holds many unsecured debts. As the result is you have one debt, the payments are usually much less than the accumulated payments made for each individual debt you had and therefore becomes more manageable. Debt consolidation loans can be obtained either through a further unsecured debt consolidation loans or through a secure loans, perhaps an extension to your mortgage or other secured loan. The borrower must be aware that a secured debt consolidation loan is usually done against the value of your house. Care and consideration must be given to this as future breaches of this debt could mean the loss of your house or other valuable items that form the security through which the loan is granted. debt consolidation is something that many people throughout the UK turn to, to reduce their debt, it can be on a small scale if you owe £3-4000 to various credit and debit cards, or on a much greater scale if your debt has spiraled out of control.
