Case Study: Susie's Story

Susie has decided it's time for a lifestyle change and has found her ideal home in a Hampshire Village.

Her existing home has been sold and is under contract, however settlement is still several weeks away. Rather than waiting for settlement before securing her new Hampshire home, Susie wants to move into the community sooner and start enjoying the lifestyle and benefits that come with community living.

A Land Lease Bridging Loan enables Susie to purchase her new Hampshire home before the sale of her existing property settles. The loan is secured against her current home and repaid from the sale proceeds at settlement.

To assist with cash flow during the transition, interest and fees are added to the loan balance, meaning no regular repayments are required during the bridging period.

Outcome: Susie is able to secure and move into her new Hampshire Village home before the settlement of her existing property, allowing her to enjoy community living sooner and start her new lease on life.

Please note this is an example only and we refer you to the Important Notice found at the bottom of this page.
