What Does Debt Settlement Cost.

CONSIDER

Paying More Can Impact Your Results

One crucial aspect you should consider when contemplating debt settlement is that the more you pay in fees, the longer it will take to settle your debt. And, prolonging the time it takes you to settle your debt, the less likely it is that you will successfully do so.

Hence, the service fees charged by debt settlement companies directly impact the final outcome. They may commonly charge a percentage of the amount you owed initially or bill based on a percentage of the eliminated debt.

Consequently, most settlement companies choose the latter, charging a 15% to 25% fee on the reduced debt. Therefore, if a typical company eliminates $10,000.00 of your debt and charges a 20% fee, you would pay $2,000.00.

Yet, at GreenPointe, we offer superior client service, and our low flat fee pricing is designed for clients to regain their financial footing more quicker.

Comprehensive Services and Low Fee Structure

At GreenPointe, we keep our pricing affordable and reasonable, so those who otherwise could not afford to retain professional assistance (if charged by the hour) to resolve their outstanding debt will have access to the services they need.  

Below is a breakdown and example of how our company assesses fees for Credit Repair and Debt Settlement services. Additional charges, if applicable, will be based upon the debtor’s supplemental documentation requirements or other case-specific matters requiring additional work. Because such requirements vary from case to case and are often dependent upon requests made by the original creditor, debt buyer, and/or its assigned counsel, we cannot reasonably determine or quote such costs in advance.

1. First Work Fee – $234.90
This amount consists of a one-time $99.95 case establishment fee plus $134.95 for the initial round of work performed on the account. Thereafter, a monthly fee of $134.95 will be assessed only for Credit Repair and/or Debt Settlement services actually performed during the preceding month.*
2. Debt Settlement Performance Fee
For each debt item successfully settled, a fee ranging from 7% to 10% (compared to the national average of 15%–25%) will be assessed based upon the total amount of debt eliminated through settlement negotiations.
Example:
Original Debt Balance: $3,590.00
Settlement Amount at 40%: $1,436.00

Total Debt Eliminated/Savings: $2,154.00

$2,154.00 × 9% = $193.86 Settlement Fee Assessed.

Debt Settlement Payment Terms

A “Full and Final settlement” means you ask your creditors to let you pay a lump sum instead of the balance you owe on the debt. In return for a lump-sum payment, the creditor agrees to write off the rest of the debt. And this course of action can usually be spread over a 3-5 month period.
