Common Bridging Finance & Loan Purposes
Bridging finance can be used in a multitude of ways and is designed to provide a quick injection of cash whilst a long term solution is sought.
Some common uses of GDL clients include:
Fast capital
Sometimes the best deals can’t wait. Finances are required quickly to ensure business can be done. We help you get the funds you need to meet those all-important deadlines.
Property refurbishment
Where high street lenders shy away from refurbishment lending or prolong loan approvals, we’ll track down short term lenders that offer the perfect alternative – 65%-70% LTV to purchase a property and funding 100% of refurbishment costs.
Fixed Property Chain
Where the sale of an existing property is preventing the purchase of a new building, a bridging loan can offer up to 100% of the required amount. Loans can be secured against any property owned by the borrower.
Un-mortgageable properties
If you see potential where a conventional lender doesn’t – a rough diamond of a property – commercial bridging lenders can put up the funds. Rather than simply judging a property uninhabitable, bringing financiers look at value based on current state and are willing to lend up to 75% LTV.
Planning permission
A notoriously laborious process, commercial bridging loan can provide a quick, short-term solution to secure planning permission against land or property. With access to a wide-range of reputable lenders, GDL will work with you to achieve finance until a development loan can be sought.
Auction finance
Upon successful a bid, an auction purchase balance must often be settled with 28 days. The quick-cash nature of a bridging loan can provide you with access to the finance you require.
The exit strategy
GDL strives to offer the most versatile and transparent bridging loans, with terms suited to your requirements. As part of this approach we always look to ensure an exit strategy is put in place from moment of initial application.
A defined exit strategy benefits both lender and borrower. By drawing up an exit strategy you have a clear understanding of how and when the bridging loan will be repaid and the lender is satisfied that any outstanding balance will be paid within the set time period.
Where a short-term loan is required, bridging finance offers the perfect solution. GDL has the resources in place to ensure you get the funding your project requires.
