About Our Residential Real Estate Hard Money Bridge Loans in STATENAME

We already have specialized loan types for common scenarios in STATENAME like:

Any one of the above could potentially be considered a Residential Bridge Loan, so there’s no reason to double up. At Glassridge, the way we specifically define a Residential Bridge Loan is as follows:

A short-term financing option to “bridge” a gap between two financial events (eg: purchase & sale, purchase & refi, etc), or to overcome a cash shortfall (eg: cash out refi to pay closing costs on a new deal).

The most important defining factor of a residential bridge loan is that it is short-term real estate financing in STATENAME.

Typically they are less than 12 months in duration, often as short as 90 days. With such a short period of time before the loan comes due, it’s important to have a plan to rapidly sell or refinance a property when considering a Residential Bridge Loan in ST.

Another name for a residential bridge loan is Residential Real Estate GAP Funding or GAP Financing, because this type of loan will help you to “bridge” a “gap” in your finances.

When To Use ST Residential Bridge Loans

If you’re planning any type of Fix & Flip or want to cash out equity to pay for renovations in STATENAME, we have other specific loan products custom tailored to your exact situation.

However, not every loan scenario falls neatly into these pre-defined categories, which is why we have generic Residential Gap Financing & Bridge Loans for situations like the following:

  • Cash out one property to pay for the closing costs & down payment on a new property.
  • Actually take title on quick a wholesale flip, closing as the buyer one day and as the seller the next (or soon thereafter).
  • Get private money to close fast while you wait for the bank to approve your long-term loan.
  • Buy out your business partner (or execute a hostile takeover!).
  • Withdraw equity from your portfolio to use as cash for your business.

The most important factor to any type of Residential Real Estate Bridge Loans or Gap Financing is that they’re short-term. This means fast exit strategies, which also tends to mean higher rates.

The good news is that Hard Money Residential Bridge Loans in STATENAME from a private lender like Glassridge will open up new potential transactions & investment strategies, since their flexibility to implement creative real estate strategies are unrivaled.

In fact, some of our Short-Term Residential Bridge Loans can even cover up to 70% – 90% LTV (in certain states, for qualified borrowers).
