Bridge Loans
Same-day capital for time-sensitive opportunities. Funding in as little as 12 hours.
A bridge loan is short-term, interest-only debt designed to be retired within 3 to 24 months by a defined take-out source: a permanent loan, a sale of the underlying asset, or a predictable receivable. Because the underwriting focus is the exit rather than long-term cash flow, bridge approvals can be issued in hours rather than weeks. Inflection Financing bridge facilities range from $100,000 to $10,000,000 and price between 9.5% and 14.5% depending on collateral, loan-to-value, and term.

Bridge Loans — Frequently Asked
How fast can a bridge loan close?+
Inflection Financing funds approved bridge facilities in 12 to 48 hours. The first wire often hits within one business day of executed documents when collateral diligence is straightforward.
What's the difference between a bridge loan and a hard money loan?+
Bridge loans are underwritten against both the borrower's repayment plan and the collateral. Hard money loans are primarily collateral-driven. Inflection Financing bridge pricing is materially lower than typical hard money because we evaluate the full credit profile, not just LTV.
Do bridge loans have prepayment penalties?+
Inflection Financing bridge facilities have no prepayment penalty after the third month. The first three months carry minimum interest to ensure the underwriting and origination cost is covered.
What's the maximum loan-to-value on a bridge loan?+
Up to 75% LTV on commercial real estate, 80% on stabilized rental property, and 65% on raw land or pre-development sites. Cash-flowing businesses can borrow against EBITDA at multiples up to 3.0x.
Can I refinance a bridge loan with an SBA 7(a) loan later?+
Yes — and this is a common Inflection Financing structure. We bridge the immediate close, then refinance the bridge into a 25-year SBA 7(a) facility once the property or business is seasoned and SBA-eligible.
