Frequently Asked Questions About Bridge Loans
What is a bridge loan and when is it ideal?
A bridge loan is a short-term, temporary financing option used to "bridge" the gap between the sale of one property and the purchase of another, or to provide quick capital for time-sensitive projects like renovations, new construction, or commercial property acquisition. It's ideal when you need fast access to funds without waiting for traditional bank financing, allowing you to seize opportunities quickly.
How fast can I get funded with a bridge loan?
Speed is a key advantage of bridge loans. For qualified projects, Waterman Capital can often fund loans in as little as 3-5 business days, with most loans closing within 7-10 business days. This rapid turnaround is crucial for investors looking to secure competitive deals or meet tight deadlines.
What types of properties qualify for a bridge loan?
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 land with viable development plans. Our focus is on the property's value, the project's profitability, and your clear exit strategy.
Do bridge loans require a traditional appraisal?
To expedite the process, we often utilize faster valuation methods such as Broker's Price Opinions (BPOs) or conduct our own internal valuations based on recent comparable sales and our extensive market experience, rather than requiring a full, traditional appraisal. This helps us close bridge loans much faster than conventional lenders.
