Frequently Asked Questions from Cheltenham Bridge Loan Clients
What is a bridge loan and why is it ideal for residential investments in Cheltenham, PA?
A bridge loan is a short-term loan used to "bridge" the gap between the purchase of a new property and securing long-term financing, or preparing a property for sale. For Cheltenham residential investors, it's ideal for quickly acquiring undervalued homes, funding immediate repairs on a fix & flip, or allowing time to refinance a property without losing a competitive deal to slower bank financing.
How fast can I get funded for a residential property in Cheltenham?
We understand that timing is critical in the Cheltenham real estate market. For qualified residential projects, we can often fund bridge loans in as little as 5-10 business days, with most loans closing within 7-14 business days. This speed gives our Cheltenham clients a significant advantage in securing competitive investment properties.
What types of residential properties do you lend on in Cheltenham and Montgomery County?
We focus on residential investment properties in Cheltenham, including single-family homes (1-4 units), townhouses, condos, and small multi-family properties up to 20 units. Our bridge loans are perfect for properties undergoing rehabilitation, value-add strategies, or quick acquisitions within these categories.
Do you require an appraisal for Cheltenham residential bridge loans?
To expedite the process and align with the speed of bridge lending, we often utilize BPOs (Broker's Price Opinions) or conduct our own internal valuations based on recent comparable sales and our extensive experience in the Cheltenham and Montgomery County residential markets. This allows for faster closing compared to traditional appraisal timelines, without compromising due diligence.
