What We Fund
Bridging and short-term property finance
Short-term capital secured against property, structured around how you'll actually repay it, and backed by a lender who can fund what comes next.

Coverage
One credit team, from settlement to completion.
Most bridging is a handover. Your short-term lender funds the settlement or gap between funding, then steps back and leaves you to find construction finance from someone who has never seen the deal. We can fund the whole lifecycle.
If you require a bridging loan on a development site, the same team that arranged the funding can arrange the build, through to sale and handover.
Your exit is real
Where we are a credible construction funder for the site, we can indicate this at an early stage.
One credit process
Valuation and due diligence carry across. One set of documents, one point of contact.
Bridging Loans
1
Securing a site before you build
Settles the acquisition and gives you runway to finalise permits, presales and a senior debt facility without losing the deal.
2
A sale that has not settled yet
Covers the gap between buying and the proceeds arriving, without forcing a discounted sale on the outgoing asset.
3
An approval that did not land in time
Preserves the transaction when a bank indicative offer fails to convert and you are days from losing a deposit.
4
Refinancing an expiring facility
Retires outgoing debt and removes default risk while the incoming refinance completes.
5
Releasing equity from a completed project
A short-term facility against residual stock or a completed asset releases capital for the next site.
6
Partner buyouts and restructures
Short-term secured capital lets a joint venture buyout or ownership restructure complete on its own timeline.
A clear process from enquiry to settlement
1
Transaction discussion
The property, the amount, the timeline and the exit. Usually enough for us to tell you whether it is fundable and roughly on what terms.
2
Indicative terms
A written indication covering facility amount, rate, fees, term and conditions, with a stated acceptance period.
3
Valuation and due diligence
Valuation ordered or existing valuation assessed. Title, security and repayment evidence reviewed in parallel.
4
Documentation and settlement
Letter of offer issued, documents prepared with our solicitors, settlement booked.
What actually slows a bridging settlement
Short-term finance is sold on speed, and speed is real, but it is determined by preparation rather than by the lender. Three things account for almost every delay.
Valuations
The single biggest constraint. Where an existing valuation is current and on a suitable basis, timelines compress sharply. Where a new valuation is required, the settlement moves at the valuer's pace.
Security and title
Caveats, mortgages requiring discharge, complex title structures and leases requiring consent all add time. None are dealbreakers. They need to be surfaced early.
Repayment evidence
A contract of sale, a term sheet from the incoming financier, or a marketing appraisal from a local agent. The stronger the evidence, the shorter the assessment.
