Planning- Identify the amount receivable and the provisions to which the money is reserved for. Know all your priority needs and ascertain if cost-cutting measure is on hand. Having a little glimpse on some budgeting books that can be borrowed from a public library would be of help.

Speak to Creditors- If you feel you would fall short in meeting the deadline for payment, keep your creditors updated with what is going on. Modify a payment arrangement that tailors your maximized effort to pay. Speak with the creditors before the debt becomes due.

Selling- If you are on the verge of incurring default for payment, you may resort to selling some of the things that you do not need and things that you must have to let go of, to avoid the consequence of lawsuits and other hassles. In so doing, you can evade surcharges or penalties. If you have little extra from the money that you acquire from a sale, you can buy a cheaper substitute for the thing that you sold.

Avoid Foreclosure - Do not let your mortgaged house be foreclosed. Coordinate with your mortgagor and arrange a payment scheme that is beneficial to both sides. You can assume paying additional charges just to save the house; but you may appeal to the mortgagor to reduce it for a short time, and just have it adjusted later.

Refinance- It might be helpful when there’s no more other option, to secure a second mortgage through refinancing scheme or a home equity line of credit. Though costly, you can obtain a loan which in some way may have a tax advantage.
