Frequently Asked Questions About Bridge Loans
What is a bridge loan and how does it work?
A bridge loan is a short-term, asset-backed loan designed to "bridge" a financial gap. It's typically used to provide immediate capital for a new investment or project while waiting for a more permanent financing solution to be secured, or for an existing asset to be sold. It's often repaid when the long-term financing comes through or the sale is completed.
When is a bridge loan the right solution for my investment?
Bridge loans are ideal for investors who need fast access to capital for scenarios like purchasing a new property before their current one sells, funding a construction project nearing completion, covering unexpected costs, or securing a property that requires quick closing before long-term financing is finalized. They provide crucial liquidity and speed.
How fast can I get funded with a bridge loan from Waterman Capital?
We understand the urgency often associated with bridge financing. For qualified projects, we can often fund loans in as little as 3-5 business days, with most loans closing within 7-10 business days. This speed is a key advantage, allowing you to seize opportunities that demand rapid funding.
What types of properties qualify for bridge loans?
We lend on a wide range of property types for bridge financing, including single-family homes, multi-unit residential (2-4 units), apartment buildings, commercial properties (retail, office), and even land for new construction (often with permits in place). Our focus is on the asset's value, the project's viability, and a clear exit strategy for the bridge loan.
