Bridging Finance in London

Speed is the whole point of a bridge. On a clean London case with a clear exit we can have indicative terms back the same day, a valuation instructed within 24 hours and funds released in as little as 48 to 72 hours. Even cases needing a full physical valuation and standard legals routinely complete inside five to ten working days.

That pace is what makes bridging finance work when a traditional mortgage will not: a 28-day auction deadline, a chain break, a property that is unmortgageable until it is refurbished, or a facility about to expire. We place bridging cases across the City of London, Canary Wharf, the West End, Shoreditch and Hackney, Croydon, Wembley and Brent, Stratford and the Home Counties, secured on residential investment property, commercial premises, mixed-use buildings and land, over terms of three to eighteen months.

Fast completions are not luck. We use lenders with in-house legal teams, dual representation and desktop or AVM valuations where the asset allows, and we agree your exit — sale, refinance onto a term product, or completion of a development — before we approach the market. A clearly evidenced exit is what buys you both the sharpest terms and the quickest London completion.

Bridging Finance: common questions

How fast can a bridging loan complete in London?
On a straightforward case with a clear exit, funds can be drawn in as little as 48 to 72 hours where a desktop valuation and dual legal representation are acceptable. Most cases complete within five to ten working days, and 28-day auction deadlines are met comfortably.
What makes a bridging loan complete faster?
Having the solicitor instructed early, ID and proof of funds ready, a clean title, and a documented exit. Choosing a lender with in-house legals and accepting dual representation and a desktop valuation can cut days off the timeline.
What can bridging finance be secured against?
Residential investment property, commercial and semi-commercial premises, land with or without planning, and portfolios. Bridging on your own home is a regulated product and is not something we arrange.
What does fast bridging finance cost?
Pricing is quoted monthly rather than annually and depends on the loan to value, asset type and strength of the exit. Moving quickly does not have to cost more. We show you the full cost including arrangement, valuation, legal and exit fees before you commit.
