Lump Sum IVAs - What is a Lump Sum IVA?

A Lump Sum IVA is an IVA where all the debts are paid off via lump sum payments.
This type of IVA can take just a few months to complete. In some circumstances creditors may accept a lump sum payment as a final payment, even if it is less that the amount of debt owed, so that they can get there money back quicker.

A Lump Sum IVA is an option when you can get hold of a substantial amount of money, for example through assets such as property you own that you could sell or remortgage, or if you know someone who is willing to use some of their money to help you settle your debts. Other examples are if you are left money or assets in a will, win a sum of money, given a gift of money, or if you downsize your property or car.
