A bridging loan is a short-term secured loan. They can be used to ‘bridge the gap’ between purchasing a property and selling your existing one. This is why the repayment term is usually between 6 and 24 months.
Acquiring a bridging loan gives you a faster way of getting the funds you need, to counteract the usual long waiting times. However, it is important to have a good exit-plan in place to ensure repayment is as easy as possible and achievable. This is because bridging loans are often more expensive than conventional loans and mortgages.
When setting up a bridging loan, there are other costs that you will need to cover, including interest. These include:
An open bridging loan is a short-term loan without a defined exit strategy or end date; it is open-ended. A closed bridging loan must have a defined exit strategy. Open bridging loans are considered to be more risky. They usually have a higher interest rate than closed loans, and the lender will need to be satisfied that you will be able to pay back the loan.
If you are unable to meet the specifics of your exit strategy, there are a few things that you can do. One option is to ask your lender to extend the exit strategy due to your circumstances. However, if you do this, it may change the terms of your loan overall.
If your lender is not willing to give you an extension, you can choose to re-bridge with another lender. The potential for higher interest rates may increase due to greater risk, as you would then have a history of repayment issues.

Yes, in most cases you will need a solicitor for a bridging loan. Lenders require legal representation to review the loan agreement, carry out necessary checks and ensure the transaction is completed correctly. A solicitor also protects your interests by explaining the terms and highlighting any risks.
The legal process for a bridging loan is usually much quicker than a standard mortgage. In many cases, it can be completed within a few days to a couple of weeks, depending on the complexity of the transaction and how quickly all parties provide the required information.
Working with experienced bridging loan solicitors can help speed up the process and avoid unnecessary delays.
