A home loan to help you buy before you sell

Our bridging loan lets you buy a new home now while you wait to sell your old one, later. It’s that easy. When you sell your old property, the sale funds are used to pay down your bridging loan, after which the loan remaining will convert to a standard variable home loan.

Our bridging loan gives you the flexibility to buy now and sell later. Enjoy the benefit of owning your new home today and the breathing space to sell your old home in the future, on your terms.

Frequently asked questions

A Bridging Loan gives you the funds to buy a new home now while you work to sell your old one within a ‘bridging’ period of either 6 or 12 months, starting from when you settle your new property.

The loan on your current home is refinanced and bundled with the loan amount of your new home to make the Bridging Loan. The bridging period of the loan exists until you sell your old home, at which point the sale funds are applied to reduce your loan, which then converts to a standard variable home loan against just your new property.

Yes. You can apply for a pre-approval on your Bridging Loan.

You will need at least 20% deposit to be eligible.

You can take 6 or 12 months to sell your home, depending on the bridging period you choose.

Our Bridging Loan is available to customers who are selling their existing owner occupied or investment property, to purchase a new owner occupied property. The new purchase must be owner occupied.

You can borrow between $50,000 and $3,000,000.

The bridging period refers to a maximum 6 or 12 month term, selected by you, between when you settle your new home (now) and when you sell your old one (later).

Depending on the bridging period you choose, interest may be charged. The interest charged during a bridging period is structured as follows: 

  • Months 1 to 3: No interest charged and no repayment required. 

  • Months 4 to 6: Interest charged monthly,  interest will be capitalised (added) to principal loan amount, no repayment required. 

  • Months 7 to 12: (if 12 month bridging period selected) Monthly interest only repayments required.
