ANSWERS

What is a Bridge Loan?

Bridging finance or a bridging loan is a short term funding option used by companies, individuals and other entities to secure their short term position until a long term financing option can be arranged.

With the emphasis on the words ‘short term’, this type of loan is quick to arrange, typically taking a week or two, although this can sometimes be quicker, depending on your individual circumstances.

How does a bridge loan work?

You may only require a bridging loan for as little as 48 hours, though the product term can be anywhere from one to 24 months. Often bridging finance is used to bridge the gap between two property purchases falling simultaneously, but equally this could apply to the purchase of land, an office or commercial unit.

For example, if the proceeds of your house sale are funding your next purchase, but the sale is taking longer than expected and you run the risk of losing your onward purchase, a bridging loan would enable you to complete the transaction of your onward purchase, despite not having sold your current home.

Available for both residential and commercial property, a bridging loan can be used to facilitate any project with borrowing usually available for up to 75 per cent of the value of the asset.

Who is it for?

Typically bridging loans are used for auction purchases or bridging the gap between selling your current property and purchasing a new one. Residential buyers, Landlords, developers or even business owners can access bridging loans. Bridging loans are solely based on your property or land assets, which means there are no age or salary restrictions, like there are with mortgages.

ANSWERS

How does bridging finance work for property development?

If you want to improve an existing property, then you need Bridging Finance. Bridging Finance products can be used to help fund light or heavy refurbishments. If you are doing a Ground-up development project, you would require Development Finance.

Light refurbishment

This is any type of development where you typically don’t require planning permission and there is no need to carry out any major structural work. For example, this could include anything from a small extension under permitted development to straightforward, cosmetic, interior changes.

Heavy refurbishment

Heavy refurbishment is any type of development where you are making large, structural changes to the interior, usually requiring planning permission. This could include development projects like converting a house into flats or developing a commercial property into an HMO (house in multiple occupation).

Ground-up development projects

As the name suggests, this is a development project where you are creating new residential dwellings. This can include anything from complete, new build properties to demolishing an existing property and rebuilding it as well as barn conversions. You would not need a Bridging product for this, but Development Finance.

"It's always a pleasure to deal with Max and his team and I would 100% recommend to anyone looking for finance. We completed our first Bridging Finance deal at the beginning of the year and it was a hassle free, smooth and quick process. Since then we have completed several mortgages, remortgages and a further bridge".
