BRIDGE FINANCING

Financing designed to let you move into your new dream home now

So, is your new home purchase ready to close, but your old one has not sold yet? If your current residence has been on the market for some time, but the closing date for your new property is getting closer, we can help.

Here's how it works

Using our bridge home loan program, we will finance up to 60% of the combined appraised market value of the two homes, minus any existing liens/mortgages against the sold property. This program works particularly well where the older house is either owned free and clear or has plenty of equity. When the real estate housing market is doing well, many homeowners are finding that they have significant equity, even if their home isn't selling quickly.

Usually, the first lien location; however, it is reviewed case-by-case. Borrowers are required to have good credit; however, credit scores are not considered for underwriting or pricing purposes.

Here are some key details

Interest-Only term of 11 Months
Competitive rates
No prepayment penalties

The collateral for the new home loans can be:

Current home that is for sale
New home being purchased
Both Properties (NOTE: All homes being included must be located in the state of Florida)

Other Details:

Appraisal(s) - If two properties are being mortgaged, then one residential appraisal will be required for each home.
The new mortgage will assume first lien position
Reserves of 20 months of all debts (after closing) must be documented
Full-Doc qualification only (Tax Returns and Asset-based income are used to calculate income)
Borrower must have clean credit; however credit scores are NOT considered for underwriting qualification or pricing purposes.

This program offers an excellent way to alleviate the stress of looming contract deadlines from builders and sellers. Because we are a direct lender and not a broker, it means that we will underwrite your new loan and make the lending decision ourselves.

If you have questions about our Bridge Loan financing, we would be happy to discuss your scenario and answer any questions you may have.
