Key Qualifier
Bridge loans are non-QM — meaning lenders skip the standard debt-to-income rules used on conventional loans.
Equity is everything here. Lenders want to see strong equity in your departing property. Credit matters, but collateral matters more.
Banks rarely do bridge loans. This is a wholesale and private lending product — which is exactly where we operate.
SRK CAPITAL works with 200+ wholesale lenders. That reach matters when you need a niche product like a bridge loan fast.
The biggest mistake I see: borrowers come to us after their rate lock is about to expire. Bridge loans take planning.
Know your exit strategy before you apply. Lenders will ask. If your answer is vague, the deal stalls.
Hard money loans are the closest cousin to bridge loans — both are asset-based and short-term. Hard money is typically faster but pricier.
Interest-only loans can lower monthly payments during the bridge period. Some lenders combine the two structures into one product.
Moreno Valley sits in the Inland Empire, where logistics and warehouse-driven job growth has kept housing demand steady as of early 2026.
Move-up buyers in this market often face a timing crunch. Sellers here want clean offers — a contingency can knock you out of a deal.
Most bridge loans run 6 to 12 months. Some lenders offer extensions, but they come at a cost.
Possibly. Bridge loans are asset-based, so equity matters more than credit score. Lenders vary on minimums.
No — that's the point. You apply while your current home is still unsold. The bridge covers the gap.
Your lender may offer an extension — usually for a fee. Your exit strategy should account for this risk upfront.
Yes. Bridge loans work for primary homes, investment properties, and even commercial real estate.
A HELOC is a credit line against your home's equity. A bridge loan is a lump-sum, short-term purchase tool. HELOCs take longer to fund.
