Bridging Loan

Bridging Loan

A bridging loan is described as a short-term loan which allows a property owner to buy a property before selling an existing property. 

So how does it work?

Let’s say you’ve found the house you want, but haven’t sold the one you’re in. You’ll need finance to meet the gap between receiving funds from the sale of your existing home and buying your new property. It’s essentially giving you a line of credit to cover the ‘bridge’ between purchasing the new property and receiving settlement funds on the old.

It's highly recommended you have more than 50% in equity to make the bridging loan worthwhile.
