Understanding the Benefits and Risks of Voluntary Insolvency
Choosing voluntary insolvency is a life-changing decision that can offer relief—but it’s important to weigh both the advantages and the risks.
Financial Relief
One major benefit of voluntary liquidation is stopping interest and creditor harassment. If handled correctly, it may offer a clear path to financial recovery.
Legal Protection
Entering into voluntary insolvency can provide legal protections that prevent lawsuits, giving you time to reorganize your next steps.
Not All Assets Are Safe
While you might gain relief, voluntary liquidation may also involve selling off property to pay off debts, and this can include homes depending on the case.
Impact on Credit Record
Voluntary liquidation will damage your credit for several years, making it harder to get housing in the future.
