Why Choose Short Term Bridging Loans?

by | Feb 1, 2022 | Bridging Loans

When time is of the essence and you need to act quickly, a short-term bridging loan is just the solution you are looking for.

We specialise in securing the best available funding for our clients’ individual circumstances. So, if you find yourself in a position where you are ready to buy your dream home but haven’t yet secured a sale for your current property, then using a bridging loan for your house purchase could be the best way forward.

Our short-term bridging loans are not only used for property purchases but can be utilised for a variety of purposes. Investors looking at opportunities that require quick funding can take advantage of the fact that bridging finance can commonly be arranged within days.

What are the pros of bridging finance?

  • Bridging finance can be secured against virtually any site, such as land, residential property, or commercial property
  • Application acceptance time is very quick, meaning funds can be raised fast, often within 48 hours, as opposed to the average mortgage completion time of 90 days
  • Bridging finance is flexible, with every deal specifically tailored to meet each buyer’s individual circumstances
  • Bridging loan financing often does not require proof of income

What Can Short-Term Bridging Be Used For?

People typically apply for a bridging loan for house purchases, but this type of short-term finance can also be used for other purposes:

  • Auction property purchases where speed is essential for raising funds
  • Development exit for property developers and investors

  • Large or small refurbishment or renovation projects
  • Buying a property that doesn’t qualify for a mortgage
