I have a business that is looking like it is possibly going to fail. Believe me the last thing I want to happen is this but I would like to know what my options are. My current mortgage is £162,000 outstanding. I have a £70,000 secured loan (even though the value of my house is now £195000) I also have around £12,000 owing to creditors from the business with another £7,000 personal debts (credit cards etc)My assests are around £5000 of work tools and another £5000 in stock. Two vehicles worth about £1500. I do have a full time job as well as a firefighter and earn aprox £28000 per year although with the business losses (all confirmed by an accountant) shown a family income of around £8000pa. What are my options? an I likely to lose my home?
I would really callour helpline, your circumstances need a more one to one approach and even though we can write things on here you need to actually speak to someone.
The number is free and also they will get back to you if they are not there at the time.
I dont want to start advising on here when i think you need a chat with the helpline, really the number is 0800 078 9367
Please give them a call and then get back to us later.
Best of luck to you

hi - I think you have posted your question twice so I have included the previous response below.
you are only going to loose your home if you stop paying either the first or second mortgages. These are secured against the house and if you miss 3 payments they can start posession proceesings.
the solution will depend upon the affordability of the mortgage and your disposable income.
This may include IVA, Debt management ot Br. from what you have said your unsecured debts are around £19k and you have 5k in tools and 5k in stock.
This sounds like you need a telephone chat with an expert to go through all the options and work out a plan moving forward
