DEBT CONSOLIDATION AND DEBT MANAGEMENT, PART 1

are you determined to take action on your debt problem, but you also are looking carefully before you take a leap into a solution. Your best option for taking care of your debt will depend upon how much income you have available after expenses to satisfy your debts. Any solution will need to be acceptable to you and your creditors. Creditors typically have a minimum amount they will accept either for debt settlement or in a debt management plan. If you can't come up with the minimum, then you may have to look into more severe and damaging options. Let's get started.

My recommendation is to begin by contacting a qualified credit counselor at NFCC.org or AICCCA.org. These nonprofit credit counseling agencies will provide you with a thorough review of your finances. After the financial review, your counselor should give you a budget detailing your expenses and what you can afford to pay each month toward your debts. They will also give you a written action plan with alternatives. This should be free of charge. Options may include whether you would qualify for and benefit from a debt management program or if you would be better off following a different action plan.

If you have enough income to afford to repay your creditors in a debt management plan but not enough to handle repayment on your own, this may be the best option for your credit. Your accounts will be noted as being part of a debt management plan in the description section of your credit report. This does not count against you when calculating your credit score. Lenders report accounts involved in a debt management plan in a wide variety of ways. Some report it negatively; some bring you to a current "good" status faster with a debt management plan to encourage your participation. Ask how your creditors will report to the bureaus

DEBT CONSOLIDATION AND DEBT MANAGEMENT, PART 2

Should you not have enough income or decide you don't want to pay what you owe through a debt management plan, I suggest you consider seeing an attorney. Armed with your budget from the credit counseling agency, you can discuss legal options with a lawyer. I advise consumers to consider bankruptcy only after all other options have been explored. The main reason is that a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, although sometimes necessary, will negatively affect your credit the most and stays on your credit report for 10 years. A Chapter 13 bankruptcy is very much like a debt management plan but considerably more onerous to you and your creditors. Your attorney can discuss debt settlement, bankruptcy and other options with you such as legal challenges for debts beyond the statute of limitations and more.

My experience is that not everyone sees things as I do. So if you want to check out a debt settlement company and make your own decision, I suggest you begin at the Federal Trade Commission's site. Additionally, the Association of Settlement Companies and its members are trying to establish standards for debt settlement firms. Avoid companies that charge a large upfront fee, and check your local Better Business Bureau to see if the debt settlement company is in good standing. Be sure you read and understand all the terms of any agreement before you sign anything, and be leery of any company that is not willing to answer any and all questions concerning the agreement.

A last word on your credit score. I suggest that you focus on resolving your debt problem in the way that is best for you. Your credit score should be a secondary consideration. Credit can be rebuilt once you have this behind you and are on a firm financial footing

PAYDAY LOAN ALTERNATIVES, PART 2

No one intentionally gets involved in the payday loan cycle. Most people are frantic to fund a particular unexpected expense and do not consider the longer term consequences of the payday loan, only that it solves the immediate problem. Almost any option beats a payday loan. To help others avoid the vicious cycle, I suggest the following alternatives to a payday loan:

Ask a friend or family member for a loan.
Borrow from a credit union or other small loan lender. Be sure you understand all the fees and terms before you sign.
Put off the expense until you have the money. For example, if you need money to repair your car, find other transportation until you have the funds to fix the car.
Request overtime or secure a part-time job to cover the unexpected expense.
Contact your creditor and ask for more time to pay or a repayment plan.
Use your credit card. Even if you have to get a cash advance it will be much less expensive than a payday loan.
To learn more about payday loans, the Consumer Federation of America has some great consumer information.

A final word in fairness to the credit counseling agency that you went to for help: Legitimate credit counseling agencies will work with all of your creditors to provide assistance. It is much more likely that the payday lender was not willing to work with the credit counseling agency to provide you with any assistance. My guess is that the huge payment they were demanding made a debt management plan impossible. Responsible creditors usually are willing to make concessions for someone who seeks help through a credit counseling agency. That payday lenders virtually never make concessions to credit counseling clients speaks volumes about their business model and makes them one loan to avoid at any cost in my book.

PAYDAY LOAN ALTERNATIVES, PART 1

You and I both know that the "big problem" isn't the payday loans. They are just the final indication of the long-standing battle you have been waging to get your expenses in line with your income. So far, the expenses have been winning. To really help yourself, I suggest that you begin with the basics and dust off the budget that the counseling agency gave you. If they didn't give you one, then call another one and ask for help developing a budget. This is the best way I know to see if you can actually live on the money you are bringing in.

If you can live on the money you earn but can't meet your debt obligations with a part-time second job or by cutting expenses to the bone, I would recommend that you consult with an attorney. Your attorney can help you determine if bankruptcy is your best option or if you just need assistance in getting the payday lenders to agree to a reasonable repayment plan. The attorney can also check the laws in your state governing payday lenders and determine if the lender has done anything illegal, which could make your loan uncollectible. A good place to find a qualified attorney is the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys.

Fortunately for the millions of consumers like you who have fallen into the payday lending trap, legislators are taking notice. Many states have already put in place laws that prevent many payday lending abuses, such as interest rates at the equivalent of 300 percent or more annually. Fifteen states and the District of Columbia have laws in place that prevent payday lenders from charging more than a double-digit interest rate for loans. The states include Arkansas, Connecticut, Georgia, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Vermont and West Virginia.

THE BAD CREDIT BLUES, PART 2

Your part of the conversation should sound something like this, "I lost my job and my only source of income right now is unemployment benefits. I have only enough income to pay my rent and other essential expenses at this time. I am actively looking for a job, and when I acquire a position I will immediately call to make arrangements to pay what I owe. You are welcome to contact me again in two weeks and I will give you an update on my job status." Take notes of the call, including who you spoke with and that person's reaction to the information that you provided. Should the debt collector call you before the two weeks have expired, remind the person calling about the first person you spoke with and that the two weeks aren't up yet. Remember, remain calm and polite, but firm.

If the calls become excessive or abusive, I suggest you screen your calls and don't answer them until you have something new to say. You can write to the collectors and tell them not to contact you again. The calls will stop, but usually this just refers the account to an attorney who will send you a summons to appear in court.

To help your job search, I strongly suggest that you develop a statement for employers explaining why you have charge-offs on your credit report and that you intend to begin a repayment plan once you have a new position. Often employers will pull a credit report as part of the hiring process, and unanswered questions about bad credit can be all that is needed for the employer to move on to the next candidate. Defuse this issue early on, once it is clear you are a serious candidate.

When you are working again, you will need to determine how much you can comfortably afford to pay each month to your creditors and work out a payment plan with them. If you need help, contact a nonprofit credit counseling agency or an attorney that specializes in dealing with debt collectors.

THE BAD CREDIT BLUES PART 1

Getting divorced and losing your job are two major life events that can wreak havoc with a person's finances and complicate making sound decisions. I know from personal experience because the same thing happened to me the year I turned 40. Your first priority is not worrying about the debt collectors but focusing on getting a new job. The credit card accounts have already been charged off by the original creditor and most likely sold to collectors. At this point, your credit will not get much worse unless you end up filing bankruptcy.

A bankruptcy can complicate the employment process and may keep you out of some positions that require licenses, security clearances or good credit. Besides, with only unemployment benefits, you have no money to pay. Once you are gainfully re-employed and can make arrangements to pay what you owe, your credit will improve with time.

Stopping the harassing phone calls is another story. When speaking to debt collectors, my suggestion is to remain calm and polite even when they are far from being polite. This is much easier said than done and takes some practice. Given the fact that you are currently unemployed and barely able to cover your essential bills with your unemployment benefits, you have no money to pay the collectors calling about your credit card debt. You need to let the collection agency know in a civilized conversation that you have no money to pay right now due to unemployment. To keep in control of the conversation, I suggest that you write out a script or at least the points you want to cover in your call so you don't get off track.

HAVE BAD CREDIT? GM MIGHT WANT YOU . . .

If your credit isn’t good, General Motors Co. still wants to sell you a car.

The problem is, it can’t. At least not in big numbers. That’s why the automaker wants more control over its lending again.

GM’s top North American executive Mark Reuss, under pressure to quickly sell more cars and boost GM’s value as it gets ready to sell stock to the public, said a shortage of subprime lending is holding back sales in the U.S.

But the automaker’s main lender, Ally Financial Inc., has little appetite for risky loans, having spent the last few years cleaning up its own financial mess caused mainly by its failing mortgage business. Both companies are majority-owned by the U.S. government.

TAKE STEPS TO IMPROVE YOUR CREDIT TODAY

Rebuilding bad credit can take years, but that doesn't mean you can't take steps today that will improve your credit score now. Here are some ways to help improve your score:

Correct errors. There are plenty of reasons that your credit report isn't accurate. Perhaps your identity was stolen, or you paid off a debt but the creditor never reported it.

If it's wrong, there's a problem, says Gail Cunningham, spokeswoman for the National Foundation for Credit Counseling in Silver Spring, Md. "Make sure that everything in that report is right because your credit score is based on that report," she says.

To correct an error, submit details of the error in writing, including corresponding documents, to the credit bureau that's recorded the error. It has 30 days to investigate and make a determination about its accuracy, the Federal Trade Commission says. If a mistake gets scrubbed from your credit report, you could see your score jump by 50 to 100 points.

Pay down your balances. Thirty percent of your credit score is based on your credit utilization ratio -- the amount of credit you've used compared to your limit. If that ratio is higher than 30 percent, it's going to have a negative impact on your credit score. Put a big chunk of cash from a savings account or tax refund toward your debt to lower that ratio and boost your credit score.

Start automating payments. Improving your credit starts with paying your debt on time. If late or missed payments have led to bad credit, it's easy to make sure your bills are paid automatically and on time. Set up electronic payments to pay off credit cards, mortgages and other debt. This will ensure you never miss a payment and improve your credit score.

What to expect when buying a car with bad credit, part 3

Temper expectations
Before exploring any auto financing options with bad credit, make sure your expectations are realistic. "You're not going to get the 0 percent financing that's offered on the TV commercial," says Hoffman.

In fact, interest can be as high as 29 percent, Reed says, though "a guesstimate is normally around 20 percent," she adds.

If you have a low credit score, you'll likely be expected to put down a larger down payment, which is "designed to offset the risk the lender or dealer is taking by financing the consumer," Reed says.

While your credit score is a big determinant in how much of a down payment and interest you'll pay, there are other factors as well. If you've lived in your current home for a long period of time, that shows stability. Likewise, if you have a steady job and can show a stable employment history, you'll likely be seen as less of a risk.

References can also play a role. A list of people who can verify that you're responsible and likely to pay your debts can also lead to an extension of credit with better terms, Reed says.

Once you get approved, know that you can always refinance to better terms if your credit score improves -- something that's likely to happen as you make those car payments on time. "It is a good opportunity to be able to build better credit for the future," says Hoffman.

What to expect when buying a car with bad credit, Part 2

A recovering market
Gone are the days when practically anyone could stroll into a car dealership, plunk little or no money down and drive out with a new vehicle. But, "there are still a lot of financing options available and the landscape has improved from a year ago," says Eric Hoffman, a spokesman for Americans Well-Informed on Automobile Retailing Economics (AWARE: undefined, undefined, undefined%), an organization comprised of auto dealers and finance companies that aims to educate consumers about car financing.

If you belong to a credit union, check those rates first. Then see if you can get a better offer from a local bank or the dealer itself. "If you have less-than-stellar credit, shopping around is even more important because it will give you a broader gauge for what different financial institutions are willing to offer," Hoffman says.

An option for people with low credit scores that is gaining in popularity right now is the "buy-here, pay-here" market. Formerly known as "mom and pop" dealerships, buy-here, pay-here dealers generally require about $1,000 down and "stay in close touch with the customer throughout the length of the loan," says Jennifer Reed, editor of The Subprime Auto Finance News. Such dealers are more likely to finance people with bad credit, but "the customer is sometimes expected to make weekly or biweekly payments to stay current," Reed says. Some dealers will even align payments' due dates with customers' paydays, and many will also report good payment histories to credit bureaus, which can help borrowers improve their credit.

In 2010, more than 2.3 million vehicles are expected to be financed via buy-here, pay-here dealers, up from 1.84 million vehicles in 2009 and 1.32 million in 2000, according to CNW Research.

The person who takes advantage of subprime credit offers, such as those offered by buy-here, pay-here dealers, is "someone who is simply looking for transportation to get them to and from work and to do basic errands," Reed says. "They are not looking for something fancy, but instead are seeking a vehicle that meets their basic needs."

What to expect when buying a car with bad credit, part 1

The last sound you want to hear when you're rebuilding your credit is the clank of a dying car.

Not only would a new car stretch an overburdened budget even tighter, but blemished credit means you won't qualify for the best financing deals. The news isn't all grim, however. Though lending isn't as loose as it used to be for car buyers with bad credit, there are still options out there.

Geoff Williams, a freelance writer based in Loveland, Ohio, found this out firsthand after he declared bankruptcy. "My car literally died on the freeway, and black smoke was coming out of it," says Williams. Though he and his wife had another car, "it wasn't a very good one," he says, so they shopped around for a used car. Although auto loan interest rates currently average between 6 percent and 7 percent, "my interest is high -- around 20 percent," says Williams, who details his road to financial recovery in the book "Living Well with Bad Credit." "But I pay around $430 a month for a really good Subaru. In my case, it worked out fine."

Of course, everyone with bad credit won't qualify for a traditional loan. According to Bandon, Ore.-based firm CNW Research, only one in 10 car loan applicants with credit scores of 620 and below were approved through a bank, credit union or auto manufacturer's finance company in April. For applicants with credit scores between 620 and 749, eight out of 10 loans were approved.

But even if you find yourself denied, you're not destined to take the bus. A friend of Williams, unable to qualify for a loan due to credit problems, rents a car every month, Williams says. The car rental agency offers a discount for those who rent frequently, "so his price is comparable to what I'm paying," Williams says. "And in his case, he never has to worry about maintenance issues."

Recoverable Grants
Funds provided by a philanthropist to fulfill a role similar to equity. A recoverable grant may include an agreement to treat the investment as a grant if the enterprise is not successful, but to repay the investor if the enterprise meets with success.

Restructure
A revision of a financial agreement that alters the conditions or covenants of the original agreement. For example, parties may agree to restructure a loan agreement, easing the payment schedule, when a borrower is delinquent or otherwise faces default on a loan.

Roll Over
Prior to or at the time of the maturity of an investment or loan, the interested parties agree to continue to carry over the investment or loan for another, successive period of time.

Security
A pledge made to secure the performance of a contract or the fulfillment of an obligation. Examples of securities include real estate, equipment stocks or a co-signer. Mortgages are a form of security with strong legal standing, because they are publicly registered following a formal legal procedure. A mortgage gives the lender holding a mortgage security the right to reclaim the asset being financed, if repayment is not made.

Senior Debt
Debt that must be repaid before subordinated debt receives any payment in the event of default.

Subordinated Debt (Junior Debt)
Debt over which senior debt takes priority. In the event of bankruptcy, subordinated debt-holders receive payment only after senior debt is paid in full. A subordination of security interest in property allows another creditor to have the rights to the proceeds of the sale of that property before the claim of the subordinated creditor.

Term
Refers to the maturity or length of time until final repayment on a loan, bond, sale or other contractual obligation.

User
A non- or for-profit entity that receives a program-related investment directly from a funder for use in its programs or ventures.

Warranties
Statement attesting that certain statements are true. For instance, the borrower may warrant that it is a corporation, that it is entering into the agreement legally and that financial statements supplied to the bank are true.

Working Capital
Technically, means current assets and current liabilities. The term is commonly used a synonymous with net working capital. The term often also is used to refer to all short-term funding needs for operations (excluding debt service and fixed assets). A company's investment in current assets that are used to maintain normal business operations. Net working capital, which is the excess of current assets over current liabilities is also interchangeable with working capital. Both reflect the resources in circulation to meet operating needs and obligations as they come due.

Write off
When an investment, such as a loan, becomes seriously delinquent or in default and is determined to be uncollectible, the lender may choose to charge the outstanding investment amount as an expense or a loss

Loan Terms Glossary D - L

Debt
An amount owed for funds borrowed. The debt may be owed to an organization's own reserves, individuals, banks, or other institutions. Generally, the debt is secured by a note, bond, mortgage, or other instrument that states repayment and interest provisions. The note, in turn, may be secured by a lien against property or other assets.

Debt Service
Amount of payment due regularly to meet a debt agreement; usually a monthly, quarterly or annual obligation.

Debt Service Reserve
Term used to refer to cash reserves set aside by a borrower, either by internal policy or lender covenant, to repay debt in the event that cash generated by operations is insufficient.

Default
A failure to discharge a duty. The term is most often used to describe the occurrence of an event that cuts short the rights or remedies of one of the parties to an agreement or legal dispute, for example, the failure of the mortgagor to pay a mortgage installment, or to comply with mortgage covenants.

Delinquent
In a monetary context, something that has been made payable and is overdue and unpaid,

Due Diligence
Refers to the task of carefully confirming all critical assumptions and facts presented by a borrower. This includes verifying sources of income, accuracy of financial statements, value of assets that will serve as collateral, the tax status of the borrower and any other material facts presented by the borrower.

Endowment or Trust
A fund that contains assets whose use is restricted only to the income earned by these assets.

Equity
The value of property in an organization greater than total debt held on it. Equity investments typically take the form of an owner's share in the business, and often, a share in the return, or profits. Equity investments carry greater risk than debt, but the potential for greater return should balance the risk.

Equity Participation
An ownership position in an organization or venture taken through an investment. Returns on the investment are dependent on the profitability of the organization or venture.

Fund Balance
Net worth in a nonprofit organization; total assets minus total liabilities.

General Recourse
Rights to demand payment from the general assets of the debtor, without seniority in access to any specific assets.

Guaranteed Loan
A pledge to cover the payment of debt or to perform some obligation if the person liable fails to perform. When a third party guarantees a loan, it promises to pay in the event of a default by the borrower.

Interim Financing
Short-term loan to provide temporary financing until more permanent financing is available.

Intermediaries
Non- or for-profit institutions that have specialized lending capacities. They obtain capital in the form of equity and low interest loans from a variety of sources, including foundations and other funders, to form a "lending pool." They then serve as "wholesalers" who process large numbers of small loans or investments. This "economy of scale" often allows intermediaries to be more efficient than a foundation or funder could be if it considered each investment individually. Also, intermediaries often develop expertise in a particular field or region that foundations or funders cannot afford to develop. In the context of this study, non-financial intermediaries include community foundations and financial intermediaries include credit unions, venture capital and loan funds, banks, etc.

Leverage
Using long-term debt to secure funds for an organization. In the social investment world, often refers to financial participation by other private, public or individual sources.

Liabilities, Total Liabilities
Total value of financial claims on a firm's assets. Equals total assets minus net worth.

Loan Agreement
A written contract between a lender and a borrower that sets out the rights and obligations of each party regarding a specified loan.

Loss Reserves
That portion of a fund's earnings or permanent capital designated by the board of directors as a reserve against possible loan losses and, as such, unavailable for lending purposes. Generally accepted accounting principles governing for-profit and regulated financial institutions require that loan loss expense be deducted as an annual expense on an accrual basis and that the loan loss reserve be shown as a contra asset reducing loan assets. To date, no accounting convention has been established to govern loan loss reserve accounting for unregulated nonprofit institutions. The technical treatment is to establish the reserve through periodic charges against earnings, and actual losses, when and if incurred, and are charged against the reserve. For balance sheet purposes a loan loss reserve (should) be shown as a deduction from the loan portfolio to suggest that its true economic value should be reduced by the estimated loss exposure.
