Frequently Asked Questions from New York, NY Clients about Bridge Loans

What is a bridge loan and why is it ideal for New York City?

A bridge loan is a short-term, asset-based loan designed to "bridge" the gap between financing needs. It's ideal for the fast-paced NYC market because it offers speed and flexibility, allowing investors to quickly acquire new residential properties, fund renovations, or prevent losing a deal while awaiting longer-term financing or the sale of another property. This is crucial for securing competitive residential deals in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and beyond.

How fast can I get funded for a residential property in New York City?

We pride ourselves on efficiency. For qualified New York City residential projects, we can often fund bridge loans in as little as 3-5 business days, with most loans closing within 7-10 business days. This speed is paramount for securing competitive deals and reacting quickly to market opportunities across NYC's boroughs.

What types of residential properties do you lend on in NYC?

We provide bridge loans for a wide range of residential property types across New York City, including single-family homes, multi-unit residential (2-4 units), apartment buildings, townhouses, brownstones, and even land for new residential construction. Our focus is on the asset's value and the project's profitability, not just the borrower's credit history.

Do you require an appraisal for New York, NY residential properties?

To expedite the bridge loan process, 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 New York City real estate market, rather than waiting for a full, traditional appraisal. This helps us close faster, which is often a deciding factor in NYC's competitive environment.
