Mayfair, synonymous with luxury and refinement, demands financing solutions that mirror its prestigious status. At Bridging Finance London, we specialise in crafting bridging loans that align with the exclusivity of Mayfair’s property scene.
Bridging loans are short-term financing options, typically spanning a few weeks to 18 months. They provide the necessary funds to ‘bridge’ the gap between a property purchase and long-term financing. In Mayfair’s dynamic market, these loans can be instrumental in securing prime properties or capitalising on time-sensitive investment opportunities.
We offer loans up to 80% LTV (Loan-to-Value) and can extend to 90% LTV in certain circumstances. This level of financing is particularly valuable in Mayfair, where property values reach into the millions.
Mayfair’s property landscape is characterised by its blend of period properties, luxury apartments, and exclusive commercial spaces. Our bridging loans are tailored to meet the specific needs of this high-end market, whether you’re eyeing a Georgian townhouse on Grosvenor Square or a boutique retail space on Mount Street.
Beyond the bounding roads, to the north is Marylebone, to the east Soho, and to the southwest Knightsbridge and Belgravia.
