Bridging Loans explained

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.

How bridging loans works

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.

Bridging Loans in York: frequently asked questions

Can I get a bridging loan for property in York?
Yes. Bridging lenders value the property as security, and York properties are well within acceptable lending criteria. Urban properties in York typically achieve higher LTV ratios due to stronger resale values and higher demand.
What are bridging loan rates in York?
Bridging loan rates typically range from 0.4% to 1.5% per month regardless of location. The rate depends on the LTV, property type, and your profile — not your York address. Properties in Yorkshire with strong resale values often qualify for the most competitive rates.
How fast can I get a bridging loan in York?
Most bridging loans complete within 2-4 weeks, with some lenders able to move in 3-5 days for straightforward cases. York-based solicitors experienced in bridging can help speed up the legal process. The property valuation is usually the main variable.
Can I use a bridging loan to buy at auction in York?
Yes — this is one of the most common uses. Auction purchases require completion within 28 days. A bridging loan can be arranged within this timeline. We recommend getting a Decision in Principle before bidding on any York auction property.
What LTV can I get on York property?
Most bridging lenders offer up to 75-80% LTV on residential property and up to 70% on commercial. York properties with strong comparable evidence may qualify for the higher end of these ranges.
Do I need an exit strategy for a bridging loan?
Yes. Every bridging lender requires a clear, realistic exit strategy. Common exits include selling a property, refinancing to a standard mortgage, or using funds from another source. The stronger your exit strategy, the better your rate.
Is a bridging loan regulated?
Depends on the property. If you or your family will live in the property, the loan is FCA-regulated with full consumer protections. Investment and commercial property bridging is unregulated, which means faster processing but fewer protections.
How much does a bridging loan cost in total?
A typical bridging loan costs 5-10% of the loan amount in total, depending on the term and rate. This includes monthly interest (0.4-1.5%), arrangement fees (1-2%), valuation (£300-£1,500), and legal fees (£1,500-£3,000). See our bridging loan cost guide for a full breakdown.
