Need to quickly secure funds? A bridge loan in Florida or Miami can get you to the closing table fast. Discover the power of bridge loans.
The Florida real estate market remains hot, so time is of the essence.
The solution may be to get a bridge loan.
A bridge loan is a short-term mortgage loan (typically 6 to 24 months) that allows you to quickly secure funds to cover a pressing need.
It acts as a “bridge” until you are able to pay off the loan or secure more permanent financing.
Discover how a bridge loan can get your next urgent real estate transaction closed in a matter of days.
Not sure if a commercial or residential bridge loan in Florida or Miami is right for you? While bridge loans typically come with higher interest rates than traditional banks, the tradeoff is speed and certainty of execution.
With a bridge loan, you can get to the closing table in a matter of days. DAK Mortgage recently closed a bridge loan in Miami in only 4 days. If you're facing a looming contract deadline, or if you have an urgent need to refinance, a bridge loan is for you.
The spotlight will be on the property, not you. The bridge lender is only focused on the condition and value of the property. Therefore, it won't matter if you have less-than-perfect credit, high debt-to-income ratio, or other issues.
With a traditional loan, the underwriting process is long and tedious and may result in denial. By contrast, a bridge loan offers a streamlined path to the closing table.

Let's discuss your scenario
As a seasoned mortgage broker in Miami, we have deep connections with both local and out-of-state lenders who specialize in bridge lending. Here’s how we’ve helped our clients get a commercial or residential bridge loan in Florida or Miami.
We obtained a $1.6 million purchase loan for our client, a foreign national from Spain, to acquire a $2.4 million investment property in Miami. Our client, who had previously been turned down by another lender, needed minimal documentation requirements and a fast closing.
On behalf of a logistics company based in North Miami Beach, we obtained a two-year bridge loan to refinance the mortgage on its three office condominium units, valued at $1.2M total.
We used a bridge loan to help our client purchase an Airbnb property in the Tampa area. Seven months later, after he was able to show income through a profit-and-loss statement, we helped him exit the bridge loan by refinancing him into a longer-term loan.
A bridge loan, also referred to as a hard money loan, is a short-term loan providing funds for urgent real estate needs. Bridge loans can be used for both purchase and refinance transactions. It acts as a “bridge” or temporary financing for borrowers who don’t meet traditional underwriting guidelines.
Bridge loans usually come with high interest rates. Also, because the terms are short (6 to 24 months), you must have a solid exit strategy to ensure you’ll be able to pay off the bridge loan at maturity. As a tradeoff, bridge loans are fast and have certainty of closing.
