Yes. We provide regulated bridging finance across the UK including England and Wales.
Loans can have fixed or variable rates. At Alternative Bridging we offer both first and second charge loans. (please refer to our lending terms and criteria above) Whether we offer you a first charge or second charge loan will depend on what the repayment priority is if you default on a loan.
For example, if you take out a regulated loan on buying your next home, but still have a mortgage on your existing home, your mortgage will act as a first charge loan against your existing home. Or if you would prefer a second charge bridging loan, your bridging loan may act as a second charge loan on your existing home. This means your mortgage will take priority if your home is repossessed.
Alternatively, you can use a bridging loan to pay off your mortgage, in which case the bridging loan then becomes the first charge loan against your existing home.
