Frequently Asked Questions About Bridge Loans
What is a bridge loan and when should I consider one?
A bridge loan is a short-term financing solution that "bridges" the gap between a borrower's current financial situation and their future long-term financing or property sale. You should consider one when you need quick capital for a new acquisition, to prevent foreclosure, fund a renovation, or buy a new property before selling your current one.
How quickly can Waterman Capital fund a bridge loan?
We pride ourselves on efficiency. For qualified 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 crucial for time-sensitive transactions and securing competitive deals.
What types of situations are bridge loans commonly used for?
Bridge loans are highly versatile. Common uses include purchasing a new investment property before selling an existing one, providing working capital for a rehab project, acquiring a property quickly at auction, preventing foreclosure, or allowing time for a more favorable long-term refinance after a value-add renovation.
What are the typical terms for a bridge loan?
Bridge loans are generally short-term, ranging from 6 to 24 months, though extensions can sometimes be arranged. Interest-only payments are common, and the loan is typically repaid when the underlying property is sold or refinanced with long-term financing. Terms are structured flexibly to match your specific exit strategy.
