With debt consolidation one can combine the credit bills and make single low interest payment. If Jamie Lee payment has different interest rates, different payment values and due dates then debt consolidation can be considered useful for ease of payments.

Decision by Jamie to make debt consolidation can be considered when the gross income is higher than the mortgage value, when cash is available to pay back the debts and pay the debts before the interest accumulates more than the principal amount. It is not suitable for huge amount of loans and bills.
