Debt Consolidation

Lending & Mortgages
Combining multiple debts into a single loan, often with a lower interest rate or simpler payment schedule.

Example

Example: Suppose you take out a $300,000 30-year fixed mortgage at 6.5%. Understanding debt consolidation helps you see how your monthly payment of approximately $1,896 is structured — and how this concept affects your total cost over the life of the loan.
