ARE YOU LOOKING FOR A BRIDGING LOAN?
A bridging loan provides short-term funding to bridge the gap between two sources of funding. Businesses may need a loan for various reasons, such as expanding or relocating property before the sale of their current property is finalized. Another example is that of a development company that needs a bridging loan to acquire land, purchase construction equipment, and hire staff before any sites are sold.
It's important to note that a bridging loan is for a short period of time, normally secured against property or land and used when speed is essential and the finance is needed quickly. It is not the cheapest way of borrowing money but is normally used when time is the most important factor.
Advantages of A Bridge Loan
Can be done within a matter of days.
Requirements normally consist of a valuation and an exit.
Loans can be non-status – no requirement for income details and accounts.
Most lenders will base their loan on the Open Market Value of the property, irrespective of the purchase price, so in some cases a 100% finance is possible.
Often used for Auction purchases, change breaking when a purchase has become delayed.
Used for property refurbishment when a normal mortgage cannot be obtained.
Businesses use bridging finance for a quick purchase of stock for manufacture against an order.
To avoid potential repossession or to remove a receiver/administrator once appointed before moving to a conventional lender.
To provide cash flow.
