A bridging loan is a type of short-term loan that can be used to finance the purchase of property when there is a gap between the sale and completion dates. There are two types of bridging loans: open and closed. Open bridging loans do not require a specific repayment date, while closed bridging loans have an agreed-upon repayment date. The primary reason for getting a bridging loan is to cover the costs associated with buying or developing property quickly, such as auction purchases or renovations.

Bridging loans can also be used in other areas such as buying property at auction, self-build projects, or even for things such as paying off bankruptcy liabilities and IVA settlements.
