What types of property can bridging loans cover?

Bridging loans can be secured against residential, commercial, mixed-use properties, and land with planning consent.

Do I need an exit strategy for a bridging loan?

Yes, an exit strategy (e.g., property sale or mortgage refinance) is required to repay the short-term loan.

Is Glenhawk regulated?

Yes, Glenhawk Property Finance Ltd is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).

Can first-time property investors use bridging finance?
