Bridging Loan Finance

Bridging Loans in the UK can be used for any purpose and are suited to short term financial needs where the repayment method is known, but not necessarily the date when redemption will occur. Typically bridging finance is made available on a non-status basis, i.e. loans are available regardless of previous credit history or income.

How do bridging loans work? 

Short term bridging loans are made available against equity in residential or commercial property for periods between 1 and 12 months and nothing else! Completion can be in as little as 24 hours, but a more usual timescale is 2 weeks.
Generally speaking where non-status bridging finance is applied for, income is not a factor in qualifying for a facility. Previous credit history can be ignored, but must be disclosed to the potential bridging lender!
The loan to value that can be made available via bridge finance is currently about 70%, but this can be higher or lower depending on market conditions!

How can a bridging loan be used? 

Bridging finance can be used for any purpose!

The list of bridging loan uses is growing all the time but here are a just a few examples:-

  • Where fast completions are required for auction purchases.

  • By property developers with equity but perhaps a cash shortage.

  • To pay unexpected bills such as VAT taxes.

  • To meet a contractual dealdline for a residential or commercial purchase.

  • Not forgetting the original use by home movers!
Remember sufficient property equity must be available to successfully arrange a bridging finance facility!
