Specialist Bridging Finance

Welcome to CBS Capital

Short-term property finance for purchases, refinances, auction deadlines, refurbishment projects and other time-sensitive transactions.

CBS helps property developers, investors and business owners identify bridging finance suited to the property, the purpose of the loan and the proposed exit strategy.

WHAT IS BRIDGING FINANCE?

Bridging finance is a short-term property-backed funding solution commonly used when a transaction needs to complete more quickly than a traditional mortgage or longer-term facility will allow.

The proposed exit is an important part of every bridging application. This may involve the sale of the property, refinancing onto a longer-term mortgage, repayment from another transaction or the completion of planned works.

Common Uses of Bridging Finance

• Auction purchases.
• Time-sensitive property acquisitions.
• Breaking a property chain.
• Refinancing existing borrowing.
• Light or heavy refurbishment.
• Bridge-to-let transactions.
• Development exit finance.
• Commercial and semi-commercial property.
• Capital raising against an existing property.
• Second-charge lending where appropriate.

Information Required for an Initial Review

• Property address and property type.
• Purchase price or current market value.
• Amount of finance required.
• Purpose of the loan.
• Details of existing borrowing.
• Proposed works, where applicable.
• Proposed repayment or exit strategy.
• Relevant property and business experience.
• Required completion date.

HOW CBS HELPS

CBS reviews the transaction before approaching lenders. This helps us understand the key strengths, identify any potential issues and present the requirement clearly.

We then identify suitable lender criteria, obtain indicative terms where possible and support the application through valuation, legal due diligence and completion.
