Frequently asked questions

Got a question? We have the answer.

What are the benefits of re-bridging an existing bridging loan?

Bridging loans can have high default fees, therefore in certain circumstances it may be beneficial for a borrower to switch lenders if the term of a bridging loan has come to its end, although there may be other costs involved in switching the lender.

There are a limited number of lenders that will accept a re-bridge, and those lenders that will accept a refinance of a bridging loan will require a detailed description of why the borrower will be able to exit following the refinancing of the bridging loan.

How much can I borrow with a re-bridge facility?

Refinancing a bridging loan will depend on the funders that are available. Therefore it is recommend that you speak with a specialist broker to discuss the specifics of the circumstances, then potential funding options will be identified.
