Auction Purchases
Don’t just dream of your auction purchase – put the funding in place to make it a reality with Imagine Finance
Bridging finance for an auction purchase is a fast and convenient way to secure a property at auction.
The funds can be used to purchase a residential, commercial, or mixed-use property, with usually no need for a valuation prior to your purchase. You even can use part of the loan to pay for any refurbishment or renovation work that needs to be carried out on the property.
As the remaining outstanding balance is usually due within 28 days of your winning bid, there’s often no time to obtain a mortgage. By applying before the auction takes place, you can be pre-approved to borrow the required money to pay for the auction property, with loans available regardless of your credit history.
Here at Imagine Finance, we understand auction purchases tend to happen quickly, with a deposit and fees payable straight away. That’s why we work hard to ensure you have the funds within the time limit set.
You then pay back the bridging loan within months, usually by refinancing onto a mortgage, which will have a lower rate of interest.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is auction purchase bridging finance?
Auction finance is a form of short-term bridging designed to quickly obtain the funds needed for an auction purchase.
Due to auction houses working on a different timeline to conventional estate agents, you are unlikely to be able to apply for and obtain a mortgage in time to snap up a property at auction; instead, a bridging loan can be the fastest way to raise the funds you require.
The interest payable on this type of loan is often much higher than the rates you would pay on a mortgage. So, once you have purchased your auction property, we can help you to apply for a mortgage and use this to pay off your auction bridging loan.
How can I obtain bridging finance for my auction purchase?
Contact Imagine Finance before the auction to get pre-approved for your loan.
Once approved, we will work hard to obtain final approval of your bridging loan – just ensure you have the deposit plus fees ready to pay on the day.
As bridging finance is usually more expensive than a mortgage, it is essential that you secure the best possible interest rate when it comes to refinancing – contact us today and let us help you find it.
