Bridging Finance

We can work quickly with you to tailor open-end bridging finance with competitive interest rates to help you fund a new purchase (along with capitalised interest negating debt servicing requirement) for sell down of existing asset.

How we can help

We have helped a range of clients over our 25 years of lending to kiwis, from property developers, builders, investors, business owners to home owners. We understand the need for speed in these situations and we work hard to meet your deadlines.

We can offer bridging finance over:

  • Residential property (including high-value residential homes)
  • Commercial property (including office, industrial, and retail buildings)
  • Land
Helping you succeed

What we offer?

  • Our bridging loans are capitalised interest loans
  • We can tailor a loan to meet your needs and are intended to bridge a gap where increased debt makes servicing strenuous.
  • We can assume security over one or both properties, with lending available against both the property being sold and the property being purchased.
  • We offer competitive interest rates
