Promise Bridging – Enquiry to completion 3 days

Promise Bridging

A broker who was arranging a BTL mortgage recently needed a faster solution but also wanted the best bridging loan rates for his customer. However, fastest and cheapest don’t always come from the same lender so getting the priorities right is paramount. His client wanted to complete a purchase before the new Stamp Duty deadline kicked in on the first of April. We picked the case up on Tuesday 29th March, just after the Easter bank holiday and it needed to fund by close of business on Thursday 31st allowing three working days. Having established there was sufficient equity in the portfolio to allow a cross charge the broker threw in to the mix the fact that the client resides in Cyprus. Interest rates were the least of the problem.

After in-depth conversations we identified the lender which would be able to work on its own assessment of valuation and have the resource of in-house legal’s which would rapidly increase the speed of these important stages. When speed is the main driver every party involved must be on the same page, including the client who arranged to fly into Manchester, meet with the lender and provide the necessary signatures allowing the lenders in house legal’s time to get the charge registered. This case was funded at 10am on Thursday 31st with the exit being the original buy-to-let mortgage but saving the client a significant increase in Stamp Duty liability and the interest rate was only a little higher than the mainstream lenders. Sometimes price is very much the secondary consideration.
