How to Buy Before You Sell
Discover the benefits of bridge loan financing
A bridge loan is a short-term loan that uses the equity from your current home to help you make an offer on a new one, without rushing to sell. A bridge loan is a simple solution to bridge the gap between the home you have and the home you want to buy.
A bridge loan can be a viable option if you can cover the cost of the loan along with the additional monthly payments due until your current home sells to pay off the short-term bridge loan.
Here are the key benefits of a bridge loan to buy your next home:
* Avoid weakening your negotiation position with an offer contingent on the sale of your home.
* Take the anxiety of selling your home first without having another home to buy in a competitive real estate market with limited inventory.
* Avoid the hassle and expense of a double move.
The Bridge Loan Advance Solution
The Compass Bridge Loan Advance is available exclusively for our qualified clients with a traditional bridge loan who are working with us to sell their existing primary residence. If you are approved for the Bridge Loan Advance, it has a 0% APR for the life of the loan and has no additional application or loan fees.
What rates and fees accompany a bridge loan?
The rates and fees for each bridge loan are determined by the lender. We recommend reaching out to a bridge loan lender directly to learn more. The bridge loan can be from any lender of your choice.
What is covered by the Bridge Loan Advance?
The Compass Bridge Loan Advance can equal up to 6 months of monthly bridge loan payments and eligible closing costs incurred from the bridge loan. Eligible closing costs include the dollar value of any loan fees paid upfront, origination or application fees, if applicable, and appraisal fees.
