Is Commercial Bridge Loan Right for Me?

Commercial Bridging loans are used for filling gaps in financing that require filling in little or no time. In order to procure these loans, it is usually a prerequisite that above 40% of the property would be for commercial usage.

For property companies or landlords, the exit strategy is usually the refinancing of the loan using a the Buy-to-Let Mortgage or a Commercial Loan, after completing a few renovations with an eye to making the property a suitable option for rental purposes.

For those commercial units which are purchased with the use of Commercial bridging loans, the exit strategy includes the refurbishing of the unit and refinancing through a conventional Commercial Mortgage or selling the property.
