Debt consolidation

Consolidating your debts on to your mortgage

Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage. NatWest mortgages are available to over 18s.

You could borrow money against your property to consolidate your debts

Mortgage debt consolidation acts as a single loan that lets you borrow money against your property and repay debts such as unsecured loans, credit cards and store cards.

You could either be an existing residential mortgage customer who wants to borrow more or, if you have your residential mortgage elsewhere, you could remortgage to us and borrow more. 

Things to consider when borrowing on your mortgage to consolidate debts

Borrowing on your mortgage to pay off your debts could help you achieve those financial goals you want, however it's important you consider the pros and cons carefully.

Pros

  • Reduce your monthly outgoings
  • Normally lower interest rate than unsecured finance
  • Help you budget more effectively

Cons

Paying back over a longer time means you will likely pay more in interest

Securing debts against your property puts your home at risk if you were to miss payments

Reduces the equity in your property

We've created this illustrative example to bring to life the cost impact of consolidating debts over a longer term

Consolidating debt may reduce your outgoings now, however you may pay more interest over your mortgage term.

Alternative options

There are other options when it comes to borrowing money. While you could borrow on your mortgage to consolidate your debts, a personal loan may help do the same thing. Weigh up the options and see which fits best.
