Bridge Loans

When a new home is purchased prior to the sale of a current home, a bridge loan is a short-term loan that acts as a transition until long term financing can be secured.

Most bridge loans are secured by the property the borrower is buying, but it is possible to secure the loan with the property the buyer is selling, or a combination of both. The term of the loan can range anywhere from 3 months to 18 months, and most bridge loans are interest only which means the borrower’s monthly payments are kept low during the bridge period.

South Central Bank has great rates on bridge loans and can make the move into permanent financing quick and convenient.
