With so many differences between each, keeping track of them all can feel overwhelming.<\/p>\n<p>When you merge your debts or payments through debt consolidation, you&#8217;ll only have to keep track of one monthly payment. If some or all of the debts you&#8217;re carrying have high interest rates, then consolidating them with a lower interest rate will also save you money.<\/p>\n<p>Since there are many different types of consolidation, debt relief is always possible. Below, we break down each type of debt consolidation you can use and its pros and cons.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_toggle title=&#8221;More&#8221; open=&#8221;on&#8221; open_toggle_text_color=&#8221;rgba(2,2,2,0.15)&#8221; open_toggle_background_color=&#8221;RGBA(255,255,255,0)&#8221; closed_toggle_text_color=&#8221;rgba(2,2,2,0.1)&#8221; closed_toggle_background_color=&#8221;RGBA(255,255,255,0)&#8221; icon_color=&#8221;rgba(2,2,2,0.03)&#8221; module_id=&#8221;toggleElement1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; title_level=&#8221;h2&#8243; title_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; title_text_align=&#8221;right&#8221; title_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; closed_title_text_align=&#8221;right&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-20px||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_css_toggle_title=&#8221;padding-right:25px!important;&#8221; border_width_all=&#8221;0px&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Many different <a href=\"https:\/\/nomoredebts.org\/debt-consolidation-canada\">debt consolidation options are available in Canada<\/a>.

The downside of doing this, though, is that you run the risk of never paying off your debt because there is no fixed repayment schedule to ensure the debt is paid off with a set number of years. Learn more about all the <a href=\"https:\/\/nomoredebts.org\/debt-help\/debt-consolidation\/consolidate-debts-line-of-credit\">pros and cons of consolidating debt with a line or credit or overdraft<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Rather than using this type of credit that for many people never gets paid down very much, we can help you look at all of your options. Having a loan or repayment plan with one monthly payment that fits your budget will let you pay all of your debts off and get back on track with your finances.<\/p>\n<h3>Borrow Money from Family and Friends<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 100%; color: #747474;\"><em>What to do if Friends and Family are Willing to Help<\/em><br \/><\/span><br \/>When things get tough, friends or family members are often willing to lend a hand and might be willing to lend you the money you need to consolidate your debt or co-sign a loan for you. The downside of borrowing money from a family member or friend, though, is that if you struggle to pay the loan back, it may strain your relationship with them.
