A bridging loan is short-term secured finance designed to bridge a financial gap, most commonly between buying a new property and selling an existing one. They are secured against property or land and repaid as a lump sum, typically within 1-18 months.
You apply with details of the property being used as security and your exit strategy (how you will repay). The lender values the property, makes an offer, and if you accept, funds can be released within days. Interest is usually rolled up and repaid at the end rather than paid monthly.
For property you or your family will live in. FCA regulated with consumer protections. Rates from 0.4%/month.
For investment or commercial property. Faster, more flexible, fewer restrictions. Rates from 0.45%/month.
Sits behind an existing mortgage. Higher rates but preserves your current mortgage deal.
Borrow £300,000 at 0.75%/month over 6 months. Total repayable: ~£317,500. Your rate depends on your circumstances.

Cardiff is the capital and largest city of Wales, functioning as the country's administrative, financial, and cultural centre, with a large public sector presence complemented by growing financial and professional services firms. The city's media and creative sector is significant, anchored by BBC Wales, S4C, and a cluster of independent production companies that benefit from Wales' strong TV and film tax credits, making Cardiff Bay an established media hub. Cardiff's economy has diversified strongly over the past decade, with Cardiff Business District attracting major financial services employers including Legal & General, Admiral Group, and Zurich Insurance. With 22k registered businesses across Wales, Cardiff has strong demand for competitive bridging loans.
Funding availability depends on the business and finance required in the Wales area. Whether your Cardiff business needs auction property purchases or chain break and house purchase, lenders assess each application individually.
Several specialist lenders on our panel work with Cardiff businesses that have imperfect credit histories. Fundably may use a soft credit check for matching, which does not affect your credit score. A hard check may happen if you choose to proceed with a lender. Check your options when you apply.
