Why private bridging finance may help after a bank decline.

Bank bridging finance can fail where the loan does not meet servicing, credit, security, documentation or timing requirements. Private lenders can assess some declined bridging scenarios differently, subject to security, equity, LVR, loan purpose and exit strategy.

Common bank decline reasons

  • Servicing or borrowing capacity does not fit
  • Self-employed income or financials are complex
  • Credit conduct, defaults or arrears
  • Security type or loan purpose does not fit policy
  • Settlement timeframe is too urgent
  • Exit strategy does not meet bank requirements

Private lenders focus more on:

  • Property security and available equity
  • Loan-to-value ratio
  • Reason for the bank decline
  • Purpose of funds and urgency
  • Clear sale or refinance exit
  • Short-term bridging structure
