I seek your advice on this. I needed cash around 12k quite urgently which I couldn’t afford from my saving account. I borrowed 12k from my parents and I am currently figure out the best way to pay them back. I have 3 plans which I myself not really sure whether they are the best option out there.
Option 1.
Make another personal loan, rm12k in 10 years with 3.95 interest (government). That will cost me approx. additional RM150 in my monthly commitment.
Option 2.
Refinance the 3rd house. I bought it for rm88k, 4 years ago and the mv is rm155k. I have zero knowledge on refinance a housing loan but the idea is to have a sum of cash which can settle off rm12k loan from my parents, the rm10k credit card debt and PTPTN. Some of the commitment may gone but I got to pay higher amount for the house.
Option 3.
Sell the 3rd house for rm160-170k. Get cash, pay parents, credit card and PTPTN. The house will be gone.
Please advice me whatever you think might work to better consolidate my debts. Thanks in advance.
You are lucky that you have buy so many houses even still under loan. You have some savings but that it is up to your throat.
Personally thinking, sell one of the house with profits (don't forget about the tax if applies).
The balance profit, clear off your ptptn, credit card and personal loans.
Letting go 1 house for the sake of your life and not to burden others is the way to go.
Best not to have Credit card and pl in future. Debit card is good enough. This would give you better breathing and also start saving from there.
You can always buy another house if capable in future.
this is just my thoughts as the above may not be the full picture that I understand.
