What you need to know:
What is bridging finance and how is it used in London?
Bridging finance is a short-term loan used to “bridge” a financial gap – typically between buying a property and securing long-term funding or selling another asset. In London, it’s commonly used for auction purchases, fast acquisitions, or to fund refurbishments in high-demand boroughs where delays can result in missed opportunities.
Why is bridging finance especially popular in the London property market?
London’s property market is one of the most competitive and fast-moving in the world. Traditional lenders often can’t keep up with the pace of deals, especially at auction or in chain-break situations. Bridging loans provide a vital tool for investors who need quick access to capital to act on time-sensitive opportunities.
Can bridging loans in London be used for both residential and commercial properties?
Yes. Our bridging loans cover residential, commercial, and mixed-use properties. Whether you’re acquiring a luxury flat in Kensington or redeveloping a commercial space in Shoreditch, we can structure a loan that meets your timeline and project goals. We also support conversions and change-of-use projects.
Do you offer bridge finance for auction purchases in London?
Absolutely. Many of our London clients use bridging loans to secure properties bought at auction, where completion is required within 28 days. We can act very quickly due to short communication ways, ensuring you can complete without delays.
How important is credit history when applying for a bridging loan in London?
We’re a flexible lender. While we consider credit history, it’s not the only factor. We focus more on the quality of the asset, your experience, and a viable exit strategy. Even with adverse credit, if the deal stacks up, we can often still proceed.
What types of projects are typically funded with bridge finance in London?
Bridge finance in London is used for various purposes including: chain break solutions, auction purchases, refurbishments (light or permitted), commercial acquisition, or capital raising. Whether it’s a buy-to-let flat in Hackney or a development project in Wandsworth, we can help.
What makes Markt Financial Solutions different from other bridging lenders in London?
Our personal approach and deep understanding of the London market set us apart. You’ll deal directly with experienced underwriters who work fast, ask the right questions, and build deals that make commercial sense. We also welcome complicated, time-pressured, or non-standard applications and will always try to find a way to lend, rather than not.
What areas of London do you cover?
We cover all London boroughs and Greater London – from central zones like Westminster, Camden, and Southwark to outer areas like Chingford, Merton, and Norwood. Whether you’re investing in a prime postcode or an up-and-coming suburb, we can provide tailored funding that reflects local dynamics.
