6 Tips To Pay Off Your Loans Faster

How Public Sector Employees Can Pay Off Their Loans Faster.

Achieve financial stability this year by paying off all your loans as soon as possible. Follow these six practical tips to pay off all of your loans faster. Paying off your debt is a great feeling. You are free of another financial burden and are on your way toward financial stability. Fast-track your journey toward financial stability with these tips to help you pay off your loans.

1. Increase Your Income

In this economy, a public sector salary is often not enough. This is especially true if you have student loans and a bunch of other loans. If you want to pay off your loans faster, having more than one income stream—getting a side hustle—is the way to go. Just make sure you use the money you earn to pay off your loans. 

2. Reduce Your Expenses

When you’re paying off a loan, living well below your means is important. Reconsider the practicality of your current housing—if it takes up too much of your budget, perhaps you should move to a cheaper house or get a roommate. Follow these personal finance tips and put whatever amount you save toward your loan payment. 

3. Pay More Than The Monthly Minimum

Every dollar you pay above the monthly minimum pays off your loan’s principal. So, the more you pay above the monthly minimum, the lower your principal goes each month. With lower principal, your loan will accrue lower interest, making it easier to pay off your debt.

4. Make An Extra Payment

Every year, employees look forward to their tax refunds and bonuses. This year, be frugal and use the additional funds you get to pay your loans. Regardless of the amount, making an extra payment at least once a year would make a substantial dent in your loans.

5. Follow The Snowball Technique

Prioritize your loans from either the smallest amount or the highest-interest loan and put most of your funds toward paying it (while, of course, paying the minimum for your other loans). Once you’ve paid off one loan, move on to the next smallest or the second-highest interest loan.

6. Refinance Your Loans

Managing multiple loans, even with two income streams, is difficult. An efficient way to pay off your loans is to consolidate all of them and refinance them with Access Loans’ employee loans. Not only will you have to focus on only one loan, but you will also incur only one lower interest rate.
