Bridging finance is a short-term loan that is used as a way to provide funding for the purchase of a new property while the borrower awaits the sale of an existing property. Bridge loans typically are structured as interest only loans meaning that the borrower pays only the interest on the loan each month.

The borrower continues with this repayment plan until the property the loan is being used for is sold.

The interest rate assigned to the bridge loan is based on several factors: the anticipated risk associated with the bridge loan.

A home loan is not the same as your original mortgage, it is an additional loan that allows you to borrow money based on the equity in your home. This type of loan is usually easier to obtain than a regular mortgage and often processes more quickly. Because they are secured by your home they usually carry more attractive interest rates and terms than unsecured loans.

A home loan can usually be processed and closed very quickly, and the fees associated with it are often much less than with other types of loans.
