Bridging loans explained

What is a
bridging loan?

A bridging loan is short-term finance, typically lasting 3 to 24 months, secured against a property or other asset. It bridges a gap — between buying and selling, or between now and long-term finance.

1

Short-term — 3 to 24 months

Designed to last only as long as you need before your exit strategy completes.

2

Interest added to your loan

In most cases interest is rolled up and repaid at the end, keeping monthly outgoings to zero.

3

Secured against property

Your property may be at risk if the loan is not repaid within the agreed term.

Our process

From enquiry to funds.
In days, not weeks.

Everything you need to know.

We lend from £26,000 to £2 million, up to 75% LTV on residential property. Commercial and semi-commercial LTV is assessed case-by-case.

We provide same-day indicative terms on straightforward cases. Formal offers and legal instruction can follow within 24–48 hours, with completion often possible within 5–10 working days.

Not always. Eligible properties can use AVM (automated valuation model) or desktop valuation options, removing the need for a physical survey and saving both time and cost.

We lend on residential (including uninhabitable), commercial (offices, retail, industrial), semi-commercial (mixed-use), and development sites across England and Wales.
