A home equity loan for debt consolidation lets you borrow against your home's equity to pay off all your high-interest debts at once. Instead of juggling multiple payments at rates of 19-29%, you consolidate everything into one loan at a much lower rate - starting at 5.99%. Your credit cards, car loans, and personal loans get paid off, leaving you with one simple monthly payment.

Yes. Banks said no? We say yes. While traditional banks require strong credit, we work with private lenders and alternative lenders across Ontario who focus on your home equity rather than your credit score. Bad credit, consumer proposals, collections - our lender network specializes in home equity loans with bad credit for debt consolidation.

Most homeowners save $1,000-$2,000+ per month by consolidating high-interest debt into a home equity loan. For example, $75,000 in credit card debt at 22% costs roughly $2,200/month. The same amount as a home equity loan at 5.99% costs approximately $750/month - that's $1,450/month saved, or $17,400 per year. Your actual savings depend on your debt amounts, current rates, and equity available.

No. You can take equity out without refinancing your first mortgage. A second mortgage or HELOC lets you access your equity while keeping your existing mortgage and its current rate intact. This is especially valuable if you have a low rate on your first mortgage that you don't want to lose. We'll help you compare all options to find the best path.

You can consolidate virtually any type of debt using your home equity: credit card balances, car loans, personal loans, lines of credit, student loans, tax debts, payday loans, and more. The key benefit is replacing multiple high-interest payments with one low monthly payment secured by your home at a fraction of the interest rate.
