Total Summary
With our free mortgage payment calculator, you can find out the interest payments on what you need to borrow in seconds. Simply tell us how much you want to borrow, how long you need the loan to last, and the loan amount in relation to the value of property or security (loan to value (LTV).
Please note: the maximum loan, loan-to-value, term and rate actually offered will depend on the product selected, the property, and your individual circumstances. As a specialist mortgage broker, the rates our lending panel typically offer are higher than from high streets banks, so you may be advised to shop around before completing an application with us.
Unmortgageable Property
Bridging loan lenders consider auction properties that other lenders don’t deem suitable for a mortgage. This includes non-standard construction types, properties that need renovation, and properties considered uninhabitable. So you can purchase the property using a bridging loan, carry out the work, and refinance or sell the property.
Types of Property
You can use your bridging finance to purchase and secure your loan against a range of different property types including regulated and unregulated properties, land with or without planning, commercial, semi-commercial, residential, buy-to-let, retail units, HMOs, leisure complexes, hotels, pubs, shops, offices, property for refurbishment, mixed-use, and development plots.
Auction Bridging Finance - How It Works
Pre-Agreed Bridging Loans
When purchasing auction property, it is recommended to have an agreement in principle from the lender prior to the auction, so that when the bid is won, you can move quickly onto the next stage.
We can arrange a pre-approved bridging loan to secure the funding you need and get finance in place and ready to go when you make your winning bid. So you can complete your purchase on-time and stress-free.
Auction Bridging Finance in 3 Simple Steps
When bidding on auction property, follow these tips to ensure a successful purchase:
- Start by researching the property by reviewing the auction catalogue and visiting the site to determine how much work needs doing and whether it can generate a profit.
- Next, contact us to get your pre-approved bridging loan and make sure you can secure the finance you need for your auction property.
- Finally, bid on the property at auction. If successful, use your bridging loan to pay the 10% deposit and complete the purchase within 28 days.

Exit Strategy
When taking out a bridging loan for auction finance, a strong exit strategy is essential and is one of the main factors lenders will consider when determining your deal. You must clearly set out how you will pay back the loan. With auction finance, you will most likely repay the loan by selling the property or refinancing to a mortgage. A bridging loan will bridge the gap in the short-term until a long-term mortgage or sale of the property can be secured.
When buying property at auction, you are normally required to pay 10% of the purchase price on the day of the bid as a deposit, and pay the remaining 90% within 28 days to complete the purchase. This means you must have all the funds required to purchase the property in a very tight timeframe. This is where our bridging loans come in.
The Finance You Need, Fast.
Our bridging loans are arranged quickly. A decision is made within hours of the initial enquiry and funds are available within days. So you can complete the auction purchase within the deadline and avoid any penalties.
In most cases, other financing options like mortgages cannot be arranged within the required time period, and most do not have cash available to buy the property outright. This makes a bridging loan the best option to raise the funds you need for auction, fast.
