BRIDGE LOAN TO THE RESCUE

Bridge loan to the rescueQuestion: I have just found a buyer for my home but he cannot close the purchase for three months. The replacement home I am buying has a closing date in only one month. In other words, there is a two month lag between the time I need the cash to purchase the replacement house and the time I will get the cash from the sale of my present home. Where do I go from here?

 

Answer: An experienced Realtor can often arrange interim financing, or what is known as a “bridge loan”, for you. The money is advanced by your bank on a short term basis with interest computer daily. Your equity in your present home is the loan security.
