Bridging & Short-Term Finance

Why Use Bridging or Short-Term Finance?

Flexible in their use, a bridging or short-term loan can be used to provide some breathing space while other finances are secured. Usually completed in days and weeks rather than months and years, a bridging loan is an excellent option for those who need fast access to capital. Other circumstances in which Bridging Finance may be useful include auction purchases, paying an urgent debt or a much-needed cash injection.

 

The team at F&M Finance work closely with our clients to understand what their short-term funding requirement is, the likely term of the loan, how the loan will be repaid and any other requirements the client may have.

 

We pride ourselves on our quick and simple application process, flexible rates, short- and long-term facilities and the fact that 100% funding is available with additional security provided. Furthermore, speed is essential in bridging finance and, on average, we can achieve first inquiry to completion within 7-10 working days.

 

Indeed, the interest rate on Bridging Finance is predominantly between 1-1.5% per month.
