Bridging Finance FAQ

Funds are typically released after a set of terms and a repayment plan are agreed between a lender and borrower.

The main difference between a bridging loan and a regular loan is short-term access to funds can be arranged very quickly.

We offer bridging loans from £200,000 up to £2.5 million.

There are many reasons why someone may prefer to apply for a bridging loan rather than a long term mortgage. These include:

• To proceed with a purchase prior to selling your home
• Those who own a property which would not qualify for a standard mortgage, for example a home which needs a new kitchen, bathroom or renovation
• Those who wish to purchase a property, but are unable to proceed as cash is tied up in a property which has not sold yet
• To fix a broken property chain if your buyer pulls out last minute

There are no early repayment charges on a bridging loan so there’s no penalty for paying it off sooner than you planned.

A repayment plan is needed to qualify for a bridging loan.

This is a plan for how a bridging loan will be repaid, usually the sale of a property.

Repayment terms can be flexible, we stay in contact with you during the borrowing period to ensure that you are on the right track to achieve your repayment plan.
