Bridging loans can be a great option to secure your next move, but it’s important to go in with a clear strategy.

Here are the top tips to consider when applying for a bridging loan: ⬇️

Pay interest as you go: Some lenders let you add interest repayments to your 'peak debt' rather than paying interest during the loan period. While this can help with cash flow management, it also increases your loan balance each month (and you'll pay interest on that new, higher amount). Paying the interest as you go keeps your peak debt from growing.

Avoid LMI: Try to keep your 'end debt' under 80% of your new home's value to avoid paying Lender’s Mortgage Insurance (LMI).

Watch the clock: Bridging loans are short-term, usually 6 to 12 months. List your home as soon as you can to avoid exceeding the timeframe.

Talk to a broker: We can guide you through the bridging loan process. We’ll walk you through your options and help you power your next move with confidence.

Rentvesting is a great option if you want to secure your place on the property ladder, but can’t afford to buy a home in the location or with the space you want.

There are pros and cons when it comes to this type of investment strategy. Here are a few to keep in mind:

Pros:
▪️ Enter the property market sooner
▪️ Live where you want to
▪️ Build equity and an income stream from your rental property
▪️Start building your investment portfolio.

CONS:
▪️ You’ll need to pay rent, plus any costs on the property you own but rent out
▪️ You’re not buying a house to live in
▪️ Rental rules will apply to the property you’re living in
▪️ Less certainty about your ability to stay in your rental property long term.

If you’re interested in rentvesting, there’s a lot to consider. I can work through the different options with you and help find the right investment loan for you.

If you're considering making your next property move, it’s time to start thinking about your finance options.

Here’s a breakdown of the most common next steps:

Option 1: Sell First
This is often seen as the less risky option as you then have a clear budget for your next purchase. However, if you can’t find a new home quickly, you might need to find temporary accommodation. And, if you don’t purchase quickly, you could be priced out of a rising market.

Option 2: Buy First
You can take your time finding the perfect property at the right price, but you will need to be able to cover your existing mortgage and the mortgage on the new property until you sell your old home. This situation can result in sellers feeling pressured to sell their home more quickly.

Option 3: Simultaneous Settlement
When you line up the settlement dates for the property you’re selling and the property you’re buying. The funds from the sale of your current home are immediately put towards the purchase of your new home. However, this can be complicated to arrange and stressful if settlement falls through.

OR ... Secure a bridging loan. This option allows you to cover the cash flow gap between buying and selling a property. Bridging finance may suit those who want to buy before they sell and take their time to look for their next home.

We can access a variety of bridging loans through our lender panel, and can provide you with a tailored comparison of the pros, cons and financial implications of your different options to help you power your next move.
