Why bridging works for auctions

When you buy at auction, exchange happens on the day and completion typically follows within 28 days. A traditional mortgage rarely moves that fast. A bridging loan can be arranged in days, secured against the property you are buying (and sometimes additional security), then repaid once you refinance onto a longer-term mortgage or sell.

Common questions

How quickly can auction bridging complete?
In the right circumstances a bridging loan can complete within the 28-day auction window, and sometimes faster. Speed depends on the lender, the property, the valuation and legal work.
Do I need the full amount as a deposit?
Bridging is based on loan-to-value, typically up to around 75% of the property value, sometimes higher with additional security. You will usually need a deposit or equity contribution.
Will comparing affect my credit score?
No. Seeing indicative lenders and rates on Bridge Scout involves no credit check and leaves no footprint.
