How can a short term bridging loan be used?

Short term bridging finance can be used to purchase a residential, mixed-used or commercial property. Equally the bridge loan can be used to re-finance a property, even where an existing bridging loan has expired or is in default. The financial circumstances of a borrower are not the deciding factor as to whether a loan is approved. This means Charterbank can provide short term bridging finance to customers who have been let down by other lenders. How the money is spent is not restricted to the purchase or re-bridging of a property. A short term bridge loan can be used for improving or refurbishing a property as well as navigating any legalities.
