BUSINESS BRIDGING LOANS

Bridging Finance -The Best Short-Term Financial Solution

Bridging finance in NZ bridges the gap between the times when you have already bought a home or another property without selling the existing one. You will need to pay the interest for this loan until the existing property gets sold. It is a short-term loan varying from one month to one year by submitting the property as security.

LoansOne lending partners will use your house as security by registering a caveat over your property. You have to pay the interest-only repayments monthly. Some bridging loans also come with a full capitalization advantage, which means the lender will add the interest and costs to the loan and repayment will occur once the sale property settlement happens.

Some people also apply for bridging loans for use in their business, the available equity in a property being sold can be accessed for any worthwhile business purpose.

Different Types of Bridging Loan Mortgage

As mentioned above, there are primarily two types of bridging funds offered by LoansOne lending partners.

• Short-Term Bridging Finance

A short term bridging finance has a known exit strategy in place. In this case, the borrower will know how to pay the funds back within a particular date. Exit strategies for bridging funding are clearly defined, providing a lower risk scenario for the lenders.

For instance, the borrower might need the necessary funds to buy a new property before the current property has settled. In this case, you will have a purchasing agreement and a binding sale for the existing property. It will provide your lender with complete assurance of when and how much funds will be available within a particular date.

• Interest only Bridging Loans

With interest only bridging funding, the terms are normally 12 months. They can also be used for business purpose and are a good solution if you want a longer term loan and can service the interest only payments. The equity in your property will be used to secure the bridging loan. The bridging loan can also be extended for another 12 months if needed.
