Our clients often get debt advice from these organisations prior coming to see us.

We can assist you with all the necessary documentation, significantly reduce monthly repayments to your creditors and make your debt more affordable.

Whether you decide that a Trust Deed or an application for Sequestration, Scottish word for Bankruptcy, is the best way forward, a Trustee requires to deal with your assets for the benefit of creditors and that includes any equity held in your property. From experience, in most cases, it does not mean that you will lose your home.

The Trustee will be willing to consider any proposals as to payment of the equity and will provide you with any assistance and guidance to try to ensure that you can retain ownership of your home.

The value of equity will always be discussed and explained prior to deciding on the correct debt solution for you.

If your property has negative equity then your Trustee will look for a minimal payment to formally release their interest in the property.

You have to keep up all secured repayments on your property to ensure that it is not repossessed by the lender, but these payments are taken into account when looking at your income and expenditure statement.
