What is a non status bridging loan?
Non status bridging loans are a specialist type of finance used for property developers. When they are residential bridging loans, they apply to developers who are looking to purchase a non-commercial property – or to release equity on a property that they already own.
I have bad credit, does this matter?
These loans are offered to borrowers who have a poor credit history. As they represent a higher level of risk to the lender, the interest rate offered will reflect this level of risk. Additionally, all bridging finance is a short-term loan and interest is naturally higher than that of a traditional mortgage, and usually expressed as a monthly figure. The idea is that they are paid off quickly, within 3-12 months, either by cash through sale proceeds, or by finance secured via a long-term mortgage.

What is non-status residential bridging finance?
Non status bridging loans are a specialist type of finance used for property developers. When they are residential bridging loans, they apply to developers who are looking to purchase a non-commercial property – or to release equity on a property that they already own.
What is the lending criteria for non status bridging finance?
Different lenders will have different criteria. All will require security which is usually in the form of property, but may also be offered in the form of another asset. Lenders don’t look at previous credit performance; instead, the loan is secured against an already-owned property or the property that the loan will be used to buy. This offers a means for borrowers to raise capital if they need to do so quickly – for example, if they need breathing space to get their financial affairs back in order and to repay any creditors which may be issuing demands. The lender may also want to see a business plan and exit strategy.
