Bridge Loan FAQs

What is a short-term bridge loan in real estate?

A short-term bridge loan is temporary financing used by real estate investors to fund a property while transitioning to long term financing, selling an asset, or stabilizing a project. Bridge loans close quickly and are repaid when the investor sells or refinances.

How does a bridge loan work?

A bridge loan funds a purchase or refinance quickly, secured by the investment property itself. The investor uses the loan term to execute their plan, whether selling, stabilizing, or arranging permanent financing, then repays the loan at exit. Asset Based Lending funds every bridge loan in-house, keeping the closing timeline under one roof.

When should an investor use a bridge loan?

Investors use bridge loans when speed matters: winning a time sensitive acquisition in a competitive market, refinancing an existing loan to cash out equity or lower a rate, funding a property before selling or refinancing, or avoiding delays from traditional underwriting timelines.

How do I qualify for a bridge loan?

Bridge loan qualification is asset based, centered on the property’s value and the investor’s exit strategy rather than personal income. Asset Based Lending requires a minimum FICO credit score of 660, with no tax returns or income verification.

What are typical bridge loan rates and terms?

Asset Based Lending’s bridge loans offer rates as low as 11% with 0 to 2 points, terms of 12 to 24 months, leverage up to 70% LTARV, and loan sizes from $75,000 to $50 million, with no prepayment penalty and extensions available.

How fast can a bridge loan close?

Because Asset Based Lending funds bridge loans in-house with no third-party investors, closings happen in as few as 20 days, and the timeline stays in the borrower’s control.

Can I use a bridge loan to cash out equity?

Yes. Investors use bridge loans to refinance an existing property and pull-out equity, freeing capital for the next acquisition or project without waiting on a traditional refinance.

Are bridge loans only for fix and flip projects?

No. While bridge loans can fund renovation projects, they are also used for rental acquisitions, refinances, value add properties, and other transitional investments where the investor needs capital before a sale or permanent financing.

Can a bridge loan be refinanced into a long-term rental loan?

Yes. Many investors use a bridge loan to acquire or stabilize a property, then refinance into a long-term rental loan once it’s leased and performing. ABL offers both, so the transition happens with one lender.

What property types are eligible for bridge loans?

Asset Based Lending’s bridge loans cover single-family homes, multi-family properties, and condos held as investments, with blanket loans available for investors financing multiple properties at once.
