We help Tradies looking for a Bridging Loan
At Tradie Home Loans, we understand that tradies like electricians, plumbers, carpenters, plasterers, and bricklayers often face unique challenges when buying or selling a home. Bridging Loans provide a solution to bridge the gap between selling your current property and purchasing a new one. Whether you're unsure if you should buy or sell first, or you're navigating the complexities of stamp duty and lenders mortgage insurance (LMI), our team is here to help you access Bridging Loan options from banks and lenders across Australia.
When buying a home, one of the most pressing questions is whether to buy or sell first. Bridging Loans allow you to secure your new home while still owning your current property. This loan type can be a lifeline in the local property market, especially if your financial situation requires flexibility. The loan term usually spans 6 to 12 months to sell the existing property, extending up to 12 months if a new property is being built. Bridging Loans can cover the contract purchase price of the new home and bridge the gap until your current home is sold.
Understanding your borrowing capacity is crucial when applying for a Bridging Loan. This includes factors like your credit history, loan to value ratio (LVR), and bank statements. The application process can be streamlined with Tradie Home Loans, ensuring you get pre-approved swiftly. Pre-approval can give you an edge in the competitive Australian property market.
Another critical aspect is the interest rate. Bridging Loan Rates can vary, and you'll need to decide between a fixed interest rate loan or variable loan rates. Fixed interest rates provide stability in your repayments, while variable interest rates can fluctuate with the market. Calculating Bridging Loan repayments involves understanding Peak Debt—the total amount of the Bridging Loan—and End Debt, which is the remaining debt after selling your current property. Interest Capitalisation can also affect your repayments, as interest may be added to the loan balance during the loan term.
Tradie Home Loans offers various Bridging Loan options tailored to your needs. Whether you're looking for short-term loans or need flexible repayment terms, we work with multiple banks and lenders to find the best fit for your situation. Some lenders may offer interest rate discounts based on your credit history or LVR. An offset account linked to your Bridging Loan can also help reduce interest costs by offsetting your loan balance with your savings.
Applying for a Bridging Loan involves several steps, from initial consultation to final approval. Our team guides you through each stage, ensuring a seamless experience. The Loan application process includes providing financial documents such as bank statements and proof of income. Once approved, you'll have access to funds to secure your new home while selling your old one.
