Bridging loans
A Bridging loan is a short-term secured loan, usually to solve a temporary cash shortfall when buying a property, or similar asset, or paying for a major renovation.
Bridging loan options
- Open Bridging Loan: If you’re buying a property and a contract for sale of your existing property has not yet been completed.
- Closed Bridging Loan: If you’re buying a property where the contract for sale has been completed but there is a delay between the receipt of funds and the settlement to purchase the new property.
Bridging loans can be good for:
- Funding the purchase of one property before the sale of another
- Allowing you to buy a property before a long-term mortgage is arranged
- Providing temporary funding so you can buy a property in need of repair or renovation, until repairs are completed
