This is a short-term loan and method used to maintain liquidity while waiting for an anticipated and reasonably expected inflow of cash. For example, when selling a property, the vendor may not receive cash for 90 days, but has already purchased a new home and must pay within 30 days. Bridge financing covers the 60-day gap between cash flows.

MIXED USE REAL ESTATE

PORT YOUR MORTGAGE

An existing mortgage can be transferred to a new property if the interest rate is much lower than the current mortgage rates. Porting the mortgage prior to the date of maturity will avoid any penalties for the remaining mortgage term.
