Tax deduction & loan consolidation
Another possible advantage is that interest you pay on your equity debt consolidation loan may be tax deductible. Normally, if you add your first mortgage to a new debt consolidation loan, and the total does not exceed 100% of the appraised value of your property, the interest you pay will be fully deductible. Your tax consultant can advise you on the matter, and it's always a good idea to check with him or her.
