The Client
A first-time auction buyer with no current property holdings, having recently sold their previous home to release capital for new opportunities.
With a winning bid of £112,500, they needed to secure fast finance to meet the auction’s strict 28-day completion deadline.
The Challenge
- Auction Deadline: The client came to us nine days into a 28-day window, needing urgent funding.
- Limited Liquidity: Insufficient up-front capital for standard bridging (capped at ~75% LTV).
- No Property Portfolio: Didn’t meet lender criteria, with no current holdings or BTLs.
- Adverse Credit: Outside standard lending parameters.
- Short Loan Term: Required a bespoke nine-month facility.
The Solution
Led by our expert team, we delivered a tailored bridging finance package that overcame all the hurdles:
- 85% Gross LTV: Secured above-standard leverage to meet funding gap.
- No Upfront Costs: Free AVM, no-cost undertaking, and legal fees added to the loan.
- Lender Exceptions: Gained approval despite adverse credit and no property portfolio.
- Fast Turnaround: From application to offer in 7 days, and completion in 9 — all within deadline.
- Bespoke Loan Term: Tailored 9-month facility aligned with client’s strategy.
The Outcome
The client completed their auction purchase on time and without delays. They retained their capital, paid no up-front fees, and secured a flexible loan at 0.99% monthly, allowing them to focus on the refurbishment and exit strategy with confidence.
