How fast can I get a bridging loan in City Of London?
In many cases, bridging loan funds for City Of London properties can be released within 7–14 days. For straightforward cases with clean title and a clear exit strategy, some lenders can complete even faster. This makes bridging ideal for EC2 auction purchases where you must complete within 28 days.
What deposit do I need for a bridging loan in City Of London?
Most bridging lenders require a minimum 25% deposit (75% LTV) for City Of London properties. Some specialist lenders offer up to 80% LTV for strong cases. The interest rate typically improves with a larger deposit. We search the market to find the best terms for your EC2 bridging requirement.
How much does a bridging loan cost in City Of London?
Bridging loan interest rates for City Of London properties typically range from 0.55% to 1.5% per month depending on the LTV, property type, and exit strategy. There is usually an arrangement fee of 1–2% of the loan. We compare rates across our lender panel to find the most competitive deal for your situation.
What is an exit strategy for a bridging loan?
Your exit strategy is how you plan to repay the bridging loan. Common exits for City Of London properties include: sale of the property, refinancing onto a standard mortgage after refurbishment, sale of another property in your portfolio, or expected funds from a business transaction. Lenders require a clear, credible exit before approving the loan.
Can I get a bridging loan for a residential property in City Of London?
Yes — bridging loans are available for both residential and commercial properties in City Of London. Regulated bridging loans are used when the property will be lived in by you or an immediate family member. Unregulated bridging is for investment properties. We advise on both types across EC2 and Greater London.
Can I get a bridging loan with bad credit in City Of London?
