Common Questions
Bridge Financing FAQ
What is bridge financing used for?
Short-term financing to close the gap between transactions — buying a new property before selling another, or covering a timing gap before permanent financing is in place.
How long does a bridge loan last?
Typically 3–12 months, occasionally up to 24 months, with an exit strategy defined upfront — usually a sale or refinance into permanent financing.
Are bridge loan rates higher than standard commercial financing?
Yes, reflecting the short-term, higher-risk nature — but they're structured for speed, not long-term cost.
How fast can bridge financing close?
Often within 1–2 weeks given the right documentation, since speed is usually the whole point.
