Standard financing offers a term of five years or more, a fixed interest rate and is typically closed to prepayment for the term’s duration.
Bridge financing addresses a borrower’s short-term needs, usually three months to three years.
This short-term financing option enables access to a property’s equity for improvements, renovations or repairs, eliminating the need to raise funds from personal sources.
Second mortgages are often used to access equity in a property when a borrower wants to purchase another asset or renovate/repair a property.
