What is Bridge Financing?
Bridge financing can come into play when you purchase a home and you’ve sold your other home first (no conditions), and the dates don’t quite line up.
Let say you want to get your new home a month early, or 2 weeks early. With bridge financing, the bank can advance you your down payment portion of what you need ahead of time.
They’ll bridge you money ahead of time before the home you’re in now closes.
You cannot bridge finance unless your current home is sold. Sometimes people think it means they can leverage bridge financing to buy a new home before their current home is sold. This is not the case.
