Bridging finance

A short-term property loan (typically 3-18 months) used when a property purchase or refinance needs to complete before long-term finance is available. Bridging rates are higher than mortgages (typically 0.5-1.5% per month) but the loan is intended to be replaced by a mortgage or sale proceeds, not held long-term.
