Bridging Finance
What is it?
Bridging finance (also known as a bridging loan) is a short term finance option where a sum of money is lent solely for the purpose of paying a debt until longer term finance (such as a mortgage) or funds from another source (such as the sale of a property or receipt of inheritance) becomes available thus ‘bridging a gap’. They are always secured on property or land and are widely used to facilitate property purchases that, without such funding, wouldn’t be possible. One of the most important factors in getting a bridging loan agreed is to make sure a solid repayment method is already in place when it is applied for.
