Complete the sale of a property and move into your new home with a chain break bridging loan
When something happens further down the chain that forces your buyer to pull out, or delay proceedings, it’s something you don’t need. But all is not lost.
You can use a Together bridging loan to secure your new property and move in. Leaving you with up to 12 months to complete the sale of your old home, and repay the loan.
Plus there are no monthly repayments on this Bridging Loan, so you won’t end up paying two mortgages at the same time.
Instead, you just pay back what you borrowed, plus any interest, in a lump sum when you complete the sale of your previous property. There are no Early Repayment Charges, so the sooner you repay the loan, the less it’ll cost you.
And our common-sense approach means we can often lend when others can’t. Whatever your property, and whatever your walk of life.
Talk to us if:
- You’re retired
- You’re self-employed, or have an unpredictable income
- Your new property is in a high-rise or has a thatched roof
- You've recently changed job, or gone freelance
- You have less-than-perfect credit history, including CCJs and defaults

We understand every situation is unique
Here's the story of Bethany and Ben, two new customers we helped recently.
Bethany and her husband Ben left their office jobs in 2018 to set up a company of their own, which is now thriving. Last year they decided to sell their home and purchase a new build in their home town.
However, with the buyers of their existing property stuck in a chain, Bethany and Ben risked losing out on their dream home. Despite their perfect credit histories, their bank wouldn’t help as both Bethany and Ben are self-employed.
So Bethany and Ben came to Together, and we gave them a short-term bridging loan that effectively turned them into cash buyers to secure their new home. And when their own sale went through a few months later, they used the proceeds to pay off their bridging loan in full. Ready to see how we could help you?

Common questions about Chain break bridging loans
How long does a bridging loan take to arrange?
We’ve got decades of experience in getting bridging cases over the line quickly – and much faster than a typical fixed-term loan or mortgage. This means a bridging loan could get you the cash you need while waiting for longer-term borrowing to be arranged.
How much can I borrow, and how much deposit will I need?
We can lend up to 70% of your property’s value depending on, what you will be using the bridging loan for, and your personal circumstances. The maximum loan-to-value ratio we can offer may be reduced based on the nature of the property.
Can I get a bridging loan if I’m self-employed?
Whether you’re a sole trader, freelancer or side-hustler, we can accept self-employed applicants with just 12 months trading history, and you’ll get the same rates as someone with a regular income.
We’ll look at your last three months’ earnings, so even if you took advantage of the Self-Employed Income Support Scheme in 2020, you’ll still be treated as normal.
How do you decide my interest rate?
The rate you're offered may be influenced by several factors, including:
What you're using the bridging loan for.
The type and value of the property you're using to secure the loan.
How much you need to borrow (both in total, and as a percentage of your property's value).
Whether you have any other loans secured against the property, that won't be repaid by this loan.
Your credit history (but not your credit score).
Can I apply for a bridging loan if I have poor credit?
If you’ve got less-than-perfect credit, such as a small blip that’s caused a big impact on your credit score – we’ll use our common sense when reviewing your application, and look at your credit history instead.
We can also ignore adverse credit that’s over 12 months old when it comes to deciding your interest rate.
Overall cost for comparison
For example: A bridging loan of £181,000 repayable after 12 months on a fixed rate of 11.4% would require a single payment of the capital borrowed plus the accrued interest totalling £206,911.94 including fees.
The total amount payable would be £206,911.94 made up of the loan amount (£181,000), plus interest on the loan (£21,879.26); arrangement fee (£3,620.00); and the redemption administration fee (£110.00).
The overall cost for comparison is 14.3% APRC representative.
