What is a Bridging Loan?

A bridging loan is a short-term financial solution used to bridge the gap between purchasing a new property and selling an existing one. These loans are particularly useful for auction purchases, renovation projects, or instances where traditional financing may not be an immediate option.

How Are Bridging Loans Calculated?

Bridging loans are typically calculated based on a combination of factors:
  • Loan Amount Required: This is the total amount you need to borrow.
  • Property Value: The current value of the property you are purchasing, which often determines the loan-to-value (LTV) ratio.
  • Loan Term: The duration for which you need the loan, typically between 1 and 12 months.
  • Interest Rate: The monthly or annual interest rate charged by the lender.
  • Additional Costs: These include arrangement fees, valuation fees, and legal charges.
Our Bridging Loan Cost Calculator takes all these factors into account to provide you with a clear estimate of your overall costs and monthly repayments.

How to Calculate a Bridging Loan?

Understanding how to calculate a bridging loan manually can give you greater control over your financial planning. Here’s a simple breakdown:

  • Determine the loan amount required.
  • Multiply the loan amount by the interest rate to calculate monthly interest costs.
  • Add everything together to find the total loan repayment amount.Add any additional fees such as arrangement and valuation fees.
  • Multiply the monthly interest by the number of months in the loan term.
  • Add everything together to find the total loan repayment amount.
