When time-sensitive transactions arise, bridging finance fills the gap between purchase and refinance. Businesses across the UK rely on bridging loans for acquisitions, refurbishments, and temporary working capital.
Our lenders can release funds in as little as seven to ten working days, subject to valuation and legal review. Typical loan-to-value ratios reach 70%, with repayment structured over six to eighteen months. Interest is often retained within the term, protecting cash flow during the project period.
We coordinate valuations, legal documentation, and drawdowns to help you complete transactions quickly—whether acquiring offices, warehouses, or retail units across London, Manchester, or Glasgow.
