Short Term Private Lenders: Bridgit’s Innovative Approach in Property Financing

In the complex world of property financing, where traditional banks may not always meet specific needs, short term private lenders like Bridgit offer dynamic, tailored solutions. Since 2018, Bridgit has redefined Australian real estate lending with its flexible, technology-driven short term loans, moving beyond the conventional banking paradigm.

Utilising the latest digital tools, we provide a swift, seamless loan process – a stark contrast to traditional banking experiences. Bridgit’s services extend beyond just property purchases; we support diverse financial goals.

As one of the leading short term private lenders, we cater to a wide range of clients, from first-time homebuyers to seasoned investors, with our inclusive and adaptable lending criteria. This approach has made us a key player in the short term private lending sector.

We understand the unique needs of our clients and offer a direct and personalised approach to lending. Unlike the conventional route of seeking a bridging loan broker across Australia, we at Bridgit prefer to engage directly with our customers.

However, we do value and collaborate with mortgage broker partners, providing you with the flexibility to choose: whether to apply for a loan directly with us as a short term private lender or through a broker. We are committed to guiding you every step of the way, ensuring you receive advice and support that is specifically tailored to your financial journey.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is a short-term private lender?

Short term private lenders are entities that provide short term finance and are primarily characterised by their flexibility and less stringent regulations compared to traditional banks. These direct private lenders can be individual investors or specialised firms. The loans they offer are typically for a duration of twelve months or less, designed to bridge funding gaps or address immediate cash flow issues.

Bridgit, as a leader in this sector, demonstrates this with its unique offerings for Australian homeowners. We provide the advantage of moving into a new home sooner, saving on temporary living and storage costs. Our service includes covering existing mortgages, thereby relieving customers of the burden of managing double mortgages.

Additionally, we provide homeowners with the option to convert existing equity into funds before selling, tailoring our services to improve the lending process and empower our customers to progress in life.
What types of loans do short-term private lenders typically offer?

Short term private lenders offer a variety of loans, mainly categorised into short term property finance, quick personal loans, and business loans. Bridgit specialises in providing real estate loans for property purchases, renovations, and construction, and we’re well-known for our adaptable solutions.

We uniquely focus on alternative home loans and provide flexible short term home loan rates, ensuring each loan aids in achieving property goals and setting a high standard in short term private lending.

Our bridging loan product stands out with features like buying now and selling later, equity release before selling, and covering existing mortgages to prevent double mortgages.

How quickly can one get funded through a short-term private lender?

Short term private lenders are known for their quick funding times, significantly outpacing traditional banks with their online loans. Their streamlined and less formal application processes enable rapid approvals, often allowing borrowers to receive funds in as little as twenty-four hours.

This efficiency for potential same day loans is particularly beneficial for those needing urgent financial support, showcasing the private money lenders’ commitment to prompt and effective service.

Bridgit enhances this efficiency by leveraging technology to streamline the bridge financing process. Our application takes just five to ten minutes, and we offer a twenty-four-hour approval process with the potential for settlement in just a few days for expedited funding.

Moreover, we uniquely offer no monthly repayments, demonstrating our commitment to a customer-centric borrowing experience. While we do have a set-up fee, it is structured transparently to avoid any surprises, ensuring you understand the full terms of your loan from the outset.

Our dedicated partnerships team is always at hand, guiding borrowers and their clients at every step, solidifying Bridgit’s status as not just one of Australia’s short term private lenders but a trusted ally in the property journey. This comprehensive approach showcases how Bridgit is transforming the landscape of property dreams into tangible realities.
