| Bridging
finance is a form of short term finance, typically
used when a property chain falls apart and finance
is required to bridge the gap to repair the break
in the chain enabling everyone to complete as planned.
However there are a variety of other uses for bridging
finance which are outlined below. Bridging finance
can be an expensive way of raising money, but it
serves a purpose for many people by offering a flexible
solution compared to some other methods available.
Loan terms vary from as little as one day, up to
around 12 months (longer terms can be considered
for development finance). Lenders will charge administration
fees, but most do not charge any exit fees. Interest
payments can be rolled up or deducted at the outset
in many cases, alternatively you are able to make
monthly payments. Interest is charged daily by most
lenders and is dependent on the amount borrowed
against the property value. It is important that
you have planned a way of repaying the bridging
loan once the term comes to an end, whether it be
from the sale of a property, refinance or another
method. You can use a range of different property
as security, including, residential and buy to let
property & commercial property of most types. |

Bridging finance is a great way of raising
capital, especially where time is of the essence. Funds
can be released in 24 hours in some cases but typically
around one week. If you are struggling to obtain finance
through the bank, or you are waiting for a loan or mortgage
to be agreed, then bridging finance can offer a temporary
solution.

If you have found a property which is
not suitable for a conventional mortgage in it's present
condition, or you wish to improve the value before taking
out a mortgage to allow you to borrow more against it,
bridging finance can be used to purchase the property
and allow you some time to make the alterations before
applying for a mortgage. |
