Money Saving Tip
  For long term savings, stocks have historically outperformed all other investments with an average annual gain over 10% since 1926. Bonds, the next best performing asset over that period, returned only 5.3%. Over the short term, however, they can be hazardous. In 1987 stocks lost 22.6% in one day.

Advantages of IVA

More and more people are choosing an IVA (Individual Voluntary Arrangement) over other debt solutions, jumping at the opportunity to make smaller monthly payments and write off a portion of their debt. There’s more advantages than lower repayments and reducing your debt though, such as:

  • Your creditors can no longer legally contact you
  • You’ll avoid the stigma of bankruptcy
  • As a legally binding agreement, you’re protected from further creditor action
  • Your Interest fees and charges will be frozen
  • You’ll only have to make one monthly payment
  • You can improve your credit rating after you complete an IVA
  • It doesn’t have any career restrictions
  • IVA won’t be published in newspapers
  • You stay in control of your assets
  • You wont’ lose your house

Individual Voluntary Arrangements aren’t suitable for everyone though. It’s usually recommended for people with debts over £15,000. You’ll need to get professional debt advice before you go any further and contact a debt counselling service. The main advantage with any debt solution whether you choose an IVA or not is that you are headed toward a future without debt.
