My criteria would have something to do with a certain time frame factor, no exceptions…Ie, everybody knows they have super to look forward to but cannot access it, same for this type of project. Two /three years contracted maybe…Quick turnaround.

I will make some enquiries. taEveryone has given me a few alternatives to getting rid of the bad debt. I will do something asap. Thanks to all for your…[Read more]

So maybe it's still a good idea to put the c/c debt in to the HL debt. ie… do no 3 first, transfer to another and get the 6 months intrest free ,…[Read more]

You're all absolutly correct to say to get rid of the c/c debt first. I knew that had to go but was wondering anyway with 230/40k in equity and only 32k left to pay. I have always still kept paying my loan amount as if it was still 7.74% so I have done well there. I only have 4 and a half yrs to go and I will own it in 12 yrs. I w…[Read more]
