Bridging Finance is used on occasions where you have found your next home, but haven't yet sold your own home.
A bridging lender will take a mortgage over your existing home and the new home to allow you to complete your home purchase. Once your existing home is sold, some or all of the loan clears. Any remaining loan on the new home is then converted to a normal home loan.
Bridging lenders will allow a loan term of up to 12 months for your bridging loan. Some bridging lenders will require that you make interest only repayments during the bridging period.

If you are weighing up bridging finance to get into your next home, we will be glad to help with assessing your options to help arrive at an informed decision.
