Bridging and Commercial Finance

What is bridging finance?

A bridging loan is a short-term finance solution to help raise funds quickly until a longer-term solution can be found. They are priced monthly as you would usually pay the loan back in a matter of months. Interest is higher than on a standard residential mortgage and is paid in a lump sum at the end along with the original amount borrowed and any arrangement fees. A bridging loan is a secured loan, meaning that there must be an asset to set against it. This can be one property or several, but you risk losing this asset if you cannot repay the bridging loan.

What is commercial finance?

A Commercial mortgage is secured against commercial premises. This may be fully commercial (such as a restaurant, office, warehouse) or semi-commercial ( such as shop with a flat above ).  Commercial mortgages can be used to buy or refinance commercial buildings, redevelop ( refurbish) properties or as part of a portfolio diversification strategy.
