Bridging Loan

Achieve Seamless Property Transition with Bridging Loans

Found your dream home, but haven’t sold your old one yet? Our bridging home loan solution can help you move forward with confidence. Whether you’re a homeowner upgrading to a new property or looking for an investment opportunity, Nice Loans can help you find the right bridging finance.

A Bridging Loan is a short-term loan option that helps in closing the financial gap between purchasing a new property and settling the sale of your existing one. In a bridging loan, you have the time and flexibility to plan ahead instead of missing out or selling under pressure. In Australia, bridging loans typically run for up to 12 months, giving you a realistic window to sell your current property while also securing your next one.

Why Should You Go with a Bridging Loan?

Bridging loans give you the freedom to act when it matters the most. You can purchase your new home before selling your existing one, with the loan swiftly secured against both properties. Once your current home is sold, the loan is repaid either fully or partially.

Key Features of Bridging Loans

With Nice Loans, Bridging loans don’t have to be complicated. Here’s what you’ll get:

Investment Loan Options We Help With

We know that every borrower's situation is different. That's why we compare a wide range of lenders to find you the best loan option. Here are some of the loan options we can help you with.

Closed Bridging Loan

Best for the homeowners who have already exchanged contracts. As the sale is guaranteed, lenders consider it as lower risk and offer more competitive rates & smoother approval process.

Open Bridging Loan

Best for buyers who haven't found a buyer for their current property. Open bridging loans offer greater flexibility with terms but slightly higher rates due to added uncertainty.

Interest-Only Bridging Loan

During the bridging period, you only have to pay the interest on your loan rather than paying down the principal. This will keep your monthly obligations lower while you manage two properties & waiting to settle existing one.

Variable Rate bridging Loan

The interest rate during the bridging period moves with the market. This can work in your favour if the rates remain stable or fall during the period. Also, it comes with flexible repayment features.

Fixed Rate Bridging Loan

The interest rate during the bridging period remains locked in. This helps in making budget more predictable as it provides certainty during what can already be an uncertain time.

Investor Bridging Loan

This kind of loan allow investors to capitalise on time sensitive opportunities where you need to act fast on a new acquisition without waiting on the sale or refinancing of an existing property.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some frequently asked questions by our clients. If you have any specific questions, please don't hesitate to contact us.

A bridging loan is a short-term loan option that can help you purchase a new property before you sell your existing one. It bridges the financial gap between the two transactions giving you time to sell avoiding rush or compromise.

In Australia, most bridging loans have a maximum term of 12 months. This offers time to prepare your current property for sale, find a buyer, and settle. No need to make rushed decisions.

Peak debt refers to the total loan balance during the bridging period which is your existing mortgage if any plus the new bridging loan. And once your existing property sells, your ongoing loan balance will reduce down, also known as your ‘end debt’.

An open bridging loan is used when your existing property hasn’t yet been sold while a closed bridging loan is used when you’ve already exchanged contracts on your existing property and confirmed settlement date. A closed bridging loan is considered lower risk by lenders while open bridging loan comes with more flexibility but also come with slightly higher rates. 

Most bridging loans are structured as interest only during the bridging period which means that your repayments are lower while you hold two properties. Some lenders also offer you capitalise interest so that no repayments necessary until the loan is repaid from your property sale.

The amount you can borrow with bridging loan depends on the lender, your equity, and your ability to service the peak debt. Most lenders will assess your borrowing capacity based on both the existing loan & the new one combined. Also, lenders typically require at least 20% equity in your current property.
