Frequently Asked Questions About Bridge Loans
What is a bridge loan and when is it typically used?
A bridge loan is a short-term loan used to 'bridge' the gap between current financial needs and future financing. It's ideal for situations where you need quick access to capital, such as purchasing a new investment property before selling an existing one, funding a rapid renovation, or avoiding foreclosure until permanent financing can be arranged.
How fast can I get a bridge loan from Waterman Capital?
We understand the urgency often associated with bridge loan needs. For qualified projects, we can typically fund bridge loans in as little as 3-5 business days, with most loans closing within 7-10 business days. Our efficient underwriting process is designed to get you the capital you need without delay.
What types of properties are eligible for bridge loans?
Waterman Capital provides bridge loans for a wide range of property types, including single-family homes, multi-unit residential properties (2-4 units), commercial real estate (retail, office, industrial), and even land for development. Our focus is on the asset's value and the viability of your exit strategy.
What is an 'exit strategy' and why is it important for bridge loans?
An exit strategy is your plan for repaying the bridge loan. Common exit strategies include selling the property, refinancing into a long-term conventional loan, or securing other permanent financing. It's crucial for bridge loans because they are short-term, and having a clear exit strategy demonstrates the loan's repayment viability, which is a key factor in our underwriting.
