BRIDGING FINANCE TO BUY LAND

BRIDGING FINANCE FOR LAND PURCHASE AND DEVELOPMENT

LAND BRIDGING LOANS

WHAT IS A LAND BRIDGING LOAN?

A land bridging loan is a type of loan used specifically to buy land which usually does not have any existing buildings established on it. This type of funding is a short-term option that helps bridge the gap while organising long-term finance.

It is an effective tool for investors and developers who need quick, short-term financing to capitalise on land acquisition opportunities. The land bridging loans are usually secured against the land itself or other assets owned by the borrower. The land can be used for any purpose, including building residential homes or commercial properties.

WHY USE A LAND BRIDGING LOAN?

The land purchase market in the UK is very competitive and when property investors and developers find suitable land they need to be able to make a quick purchase.

  • Bridging loans to buy land can be approved on the day of application.
  • Provides developers with the comfort and security that they can deliver on any offer they wish to make.
  • Puts investors and developers in a more favourable position with the vendor/selling agent.
  • Allows quick access to cash, helping to secure auction purchases.
  • It is possible to draw down in increments as the development progresses, rather than borrow all the money in one stage.
  • It can be used for the initial land purchase and then refinanced with a development finance product.
  • Provides a funding method for developers looking to buy sites with or without planning permission.
  • Land bridging loans can also be used for buying building plots which are usually sold quickly, so interested parties need to act as fast as possible.

KEY CONSIDERATIONS FOR LAND BRIDGING FINANCE

During the loan approval process, the borrower must ensure there is a good exit strategy in place. Common methods include selling the properties built on the land, sale of the land after planning has been granted and/or longer-term refinancing options.

The borrower can repay the loan at any time without incurring any early repayment fees (save for the interest payable during the repayment notification period).

Novellus are unable to offer a loan secured by way of a first legal charge against land being used for a principal private residence, as this will be considered a regulated loan. 

Novellus will consider land with existing vacant premises that are currently not income bearing.
