Bridge Loans as Effective Solutions for Commercial Operators

We provide a comprehensive and thorough service in securing interim funding solutions. We appreciate that especially in the commercial sector purchasing and moving to new premises is not as straightforward as in the residential sector.

Factories, manufacturing plants, warehouses, engineering workshops, retail stores, medical facilities and many others face complex processes to relocate. The new premises would need to be acquired prior to the existing premises being sold to allow time for the relocation process. A process which may involve the lengthy task of decommissioning and re-installation of plant, machinery and equipment as well as the installation of IT and tech systems. Thus creating the need for two premises to be retained while the process is completed.

Other purposes for interim property funding can be where the buyer of the existing premises requires an extended settlement period and when purchasing new premises at auction, prior to sale of the existing premises. When building new premises, it is also quite common for bridging funds to be required.

Our brokers work with our clients and our lenders to source and structure workable solutions which are specifically targeted to individual circumstances.

  • Interim property funding solutions to allow for relocation of the operation.
  • Bridging loans to cater for delayed settlement on existing premises.
  • Bridge loans when purchasing property at auction.
  • Bridging finance solutions while constructing new commercial premises.


What is Bridge Loan Financing?

As the name indicates, bridging finance is funding product used to cover a gap over a short term until a longer-term option is arranged. This type of funding is primarily used in property acquisitions where a new property is acquired prior to funds from a property being sold being available to cover the new purchase. Interim funding can also be provided to cover the lending costs when building new premises.

Funding is normally provided over a shorter term than other options – up to 12 months for some applicants. Those requiring this type of funding may be covering two property funding commitments at the same time and will need to demonstrate and ability to furnish those commitments.
