Frequently Asked Questions About Bridge Loans
What is a bridge loan and when is it ideal?
A bridge loan is a short-term loan used to "bridge" the gap between a funding need and securing long-term financing or a sale. It's ideal for situations requiring quick capital, such as purchasing a new property before selling an existing one, funding a construction phase, avoiding foreclosure, or taking advantage of a time-sensitive investment opportunity that traditional lenders can't match for speed.
How fast can I get funded with a bridge loan from Waterman Capital?
Speed is a cornerstone of our bridge loan service. 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 allows investors to act quickly on opportunities that wouldn't wait for conventional financing.
What types of properties and situations do you provide bridge loans for?
We offer bridge loans for a wide range of real estate assets, including single-family homes, multi-unit residential properties, commercial buildings (retail, office), and land acquisition. We cater to various scenarios such as property acquisitions, refinancing existing debt, providing working capital for construction, or covering down payments on new investments.
What is typically required for a bridge loan application?
While requirements are flexible, we generally look at the property's value (as-is and after repair value), the borrower's experience, and a clear exit strategy (how the bridge loan will be repaid, usually through a sale or permanent financing). Our process is less focused on credit scores and more on the asset and the project's viability, making it faster and more accessible than bank loans.
