Bridging finance is for the necessary quick purchase/refinance allowing you to take advantage of opportunities in the property market.

A traditional mortgage can take months to arrange and complete but at The Commercial Branch we can organise a bridging loan within days. A bridging loan enables you to quickly ‘bridge’ the gap to secure residential, land or commercial property.

a new breed of independent mortgage brokers

Bridging Finance is a strategic necessity with the aim of making a healthy return after all costs.

We work with our clients to ensure you have a viable exit and there is enough profit in the deal to work and pay you dividends.

There are so many bridging lenders out there and on the face of it they seem to all offer the same, however, they play a very different game. We understand each lender and advise you to ensure we work with the right funder for your requirements as this strategy is short and crucial to have the right lender on our side.
