When to use a bridge loan

Bridge loans fit properties that are 100% complete. If the property needs work, use a fix and flip loan instead so the rehab is financed too. When the property is leased and stable, a DSCR rental loan usually offers a lower rate for the long term.

How value is measured

Bridge loans use an as is appraisal. For purchases and properties owned less than a year, we also look at your cost basis: the purchase price plus verified completed work.
