Hi,

I owne a house outside London which was a main reisdence. I now lease the the house to tenants. I am also now working in Ireland. I have a non-secured personal loan with 13,500 outstanding, which was taken out in the UK. Due to finanical reasons I missed payments on my mortgage and loan, and also have an overdraft of 2,000. My bank would no let me re-structure the mortgage to go interest only, with the surplas from rent being used to pay the loan and clear the overdraft. The house is currently on the market as I need the money to be released from it, to build a house in Ireland. I am in no poistion to repay my UK debts. Is bankruptcy an opinion?

By the way, DMP is a debt management plan.

Are you a UK or Irish resident?

My opinion, and it is just an opinion.
If there's sufficient equity to build a house in Ireland, don't go bankrupt, sell your house, realise your equity, pay off your debts. Build a house in Ireland with what's left.

Perhaps you need to decide what you really want to happen? Where you want to live.

A few answers to questions we've asked will make things clearer for us to give more accurate advice.

Hi and welcome.

You could look into doing a DMP in the short term while you sell your house then you could pay your debts off.

Ascend may you find no resistance
Know that you made such a difference
All you leave behind will live to the end
The cycle of suffering goes on
But memories of you stay strong
Someday I too will fly and find you again

Hi Brendan,

Are you now living in Ireland?

How much equity is in the house?

Hi Brendan,and welcome.

If you're selling the house, why not pay off the debts you have from the proceeds?
