What Is a 100% LTV Bridging Loan?

A 100% LTV (Loan-to-Value) bridging loan is a loan that covers 100% of the secured property/asset’s value.

The LTV is an expression of the percentage a lender is willing to provide based off of the value of the secured property/asset. The higher the LTV the bigger the risk it is for the lender, which makes a 100% LTV bridging loans uncommon.

The bigger the LTV, the more money you are borrowing against the secured property/asset, and therefore the more money you’ll have to repay. The lower the LTV of your bridging loan the more of the property you’ll own outright.

While it’s ideal to own as much of the property outright as you can, and have as low an LTV as possible, sometimes you need to borrow a large percentage of the property’s value to move forward with your plans.

Can You Get a 100% LTV Bridging Loan?

Yes, you can get a 100% LTV bridging loan, however, these types of loans are uncommon, and may require borrowers to meet additional criteria in order to borrow.

To get approved for this LTV, you may be required to add an additional asset as security onto the loan, or to buy the property below its market value.

Offering an additional asset as security on a bridging loan can help reduce the lender’s risk of providing said loan. The added security will usually have to be another property that you own outright, however requirements for the asset can vary.

Buying the property you want to secure the loan on at under its market value can also help to boost your chances of approval – applying for this LTV based on the property’s open market value rather than its purchase price.

What’s the Eligibility Criteria for a 100% LTV Bridging Loan?

Can I Get a Bridging Loan Without Security?

No, you will not be able to take out a bridging loan without security. Bridging loans are only ever offered as a secured type of borrowing, meaning borrowers will have to provide the appropriate valuable asset to act as security on the loan.

One of the major benefits of secured lending is that borrowers can usually borrow more money when compared to other, unsecured types of loans. Lenders of secured loans may also consider those with bad credit history, as they have security that the loan will be paid back, even if the borrower can’t keep up with repayments.

When considering a secured loan, it’s important to understand the risks that come with this form of borrowing – as failure to repay the loan can end in repossession of the asset you’ve secured against it.
