What Are The Bad Credit Debt Relief Options?
By Cornie Herring
If you are a bad credit rating, we have less option to resolve your debt issues. And if you are at the disparate condition to pull yourself out from debt and get rids of all the harassing phone calls from your creditors, there are a few options of debt relief for bad creditors.

Consumer Credit Counseling

There are many Consumer Credit Counseling service (CCCS) around to help you to solve your debt problems. You can enroll into their CCC program to get counseling on personal finance and follow their plan to resolve your debt problem. Normally CCCS is a non-profit community action organization whose staff members have the training and experience to help you help yourself. In many cases, CCCS assists consumers by contacting their creditors and arranging lower monthly payments. Some services are provided free to consumers. CCCS was founded by creditors to aid their financially distressed customers totally free of charge.

A CCC program will not lower your credit score, but it will be noted on your credit report and hurt your ability to get and the interest rates you pay on a home loan, a refinance, or a car purchase. Once again, be careful when selecting a CCC company as there are good ones and bad ones out there. Search online for any negative information that may be out there and use the Better Business Bureau to see a company's record there.

Debt Settlement or Debt Negotiation

Debt settlementis an aggressive approach to debt reduction, which is appropriate for debtors with a serious amount of debt or who are considering bankruptcy. Debt Settlement offers you a chance to reach a negotiated settlement with your creditors, paying back far less than you currently own.

Debt Settlement is a way to get out of debt in the shortest amount of time, and with the least amount of money without filing for bankruptcy. There are some drawbacks though. Debt Settlement will hurt your credit rating in the short term, because you must choose to go delinquent on your bills. However, because it will get you out of debt more rapidly than any other option aside from Bankruptcy, you can start to rebuild your credit rating sooner.

Bankruptcy

Bankruptcy can be the best choice for you, but it should be an option of last resort. It will hurt your credit rating severely and is not a pleasant process to undertake and your bad credit record will remain on your credit report for 7-10 years.

Bankruptcy will free you from overwhelming

Hi. Good site.
Better to short sell house or forclose before filing ch. 7?
I plan on filing ch. 7 in three months. I'm trying to sell my primary residence. The lender has agreed to a short sale, provided they reserve the right to collect on the unpaid HELOC balance. Will this get wiped out when I file ch.7? My attorney said I could just let it foreclose. That sounds worse. Is it?
