Bridging Loans
Bridging loans can be an essential tool in any property buyer or developer’s arsenal. A bridging loan is a reliable, short-term financing option to complete a deal, secure long-term funding or to allow various processes to complete. Put simply, a bridging loan is there to provide short-term financing to ‘bridge the gap’ when a person or company needs more time or an injection of finance.
Depending on your situation, such as how much equity you have access to, you could borrow anywhere between £50,000 and £10 million, secured against the property. Generally, the maximum amount you can borrow, including interest, is limited to around 70% LTV. However, a bridging loan is not tied to your income. You can apply for either an open or closed bridging loan. Open bridging loans have no fixed repayment date and are repaid when your long-term financing becomes available. Closed bridging loans have a fixed repayment date which is usually decided based on when your funds become available. Although they offer less flexibility, closed bridging loans are often cheaper as they represent less risk for the us.
Over the last decade, Hunter Finance have lent more than £75,000,000 to developers of over 350 projects across the South East, helping our clients take action on profitable opportunities and access outstanding returns on their investments.
