Frequently Asked Questions About Bridge Loans
What is a bridge loan and when should I use one?
A bridge loan is a short-term, asset-backed loan designed to "bridge" a financing gap, often used when an investor needs to quickly acquire a new property before the sale of an existing one is finalized. It's ideal for situations requiring immediate capital, such as avoiding foreclosure, financing a fast renovation, or securing a property when traditional financing would be too slow.
How quickly can I get approved and funded for a bridge loan?
Our process is designed for speed. For qualified projects, we can often approve bridge loans in as little as 24-48 hours and fund within 3-5 business days. Most bridge loans close within 7-10 business days, ensuring you can act swiftly on time-sensitive real estate opportunities.
What types of properties qualify for bridge loans?
We offer bridge loans on a broad spectrum of property types, including single-family homes, multi-unit residential properties, apartment complexes, commercial buildings (retail, office, industrial), and mixed-use properties. Our focus is on the underlying asset's value and the project's profitability, not just its current occupancy or condition.
What are typical repayment terms and exit strategies for bridge loans?
Bridge loans are short-term, typically ranging from 6 to 24 months, with interest-only payments being common. Common exit strategies include refinancing into a traditional long-term loan, selling the property, or completing a renovation and securing permanent financing. We work with you to define a clear exit strategy from the outset.
