Case studies: Bridging loans over £500k

While we’ve seen record demand for bridging finance following the loosening of lockdown restrictions over the summer, a lot of that has been for smaller bridges, however we’re still seeing a good flow of cases for slightly larger loans from property investors.
The reasons for this vary, planning gain, acquisition, bridging before a Buy-to-Let, but reflect a level of confidence in the market.
Here are some examples of the cases we have worked on recently:
Lincolnshire
Property investor looking to purchase a large detached property with stables and four acres of land. Following purchase he would look to get planning permission to convert the stables before either refinancing or selling the property.
Loan amount: £504,000
LTV: 70%

Loan amount: £667,500

Loan amount: £624,000
LTV: 75%
