there might be a lender foolish enough to look unfavorably upon someone who has consolidated, but most of us think it's a fine idea. handled correctly, a consolidation loan can eliminate someone's debt and keep them in good shape for the future. instead of having ten accounts with monthly payments totaling $600, a person might have one account with a monthly payment of $300, freeing up more of their income to allow for payment of a mortgage loan, for example.

if there's evidence that someone who has consolidated then went out and ramped up debt again, that would be considered as a negative, but on the whole, a consolidation loan is going to be beneficial and treated that way.
