Is an IVA (Individual Voluntary Arrangement) right for you? Well the simple answer is that it depends. A qualified Debt Advisor or Insolvency Practitioner is the person best placed to advise you on what your options are if you find you\u2019re going to be unable to meet the terms of your debts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

What options are best in any one case will depend on a number of factors. What your income<\/strong> is will naturally be one of the most important of those factors, as will your expenses<\/strong> other than the debts you\u2019re most concerned about. What assets you have will also be an important element in working out how best to move forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What an IVA gives you is basically a more manageable way to pay back your debts. Stories of people having their debts \u2018written off\u2019 are often exaggerated but in some cases creditors will indeed write part of the debts off when you go for an IVA. Often an IVA will mean that your debts are effectively frozen and stop accruing interest for the duration of the agreement. This should give you a much better chance of actually managing to pay the debts off within a stated time frame and get yourself into better financial shape in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An IVA is a useful debt solution to avoid bankruptcy, and if the agreement is sensibly drawn up and met by all parties, it can be a great way to get on top of your financial troubles. However, it\u2019s best to get sound advice from an expert before taking any decisions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
