This loan allows a person to place a short term, interest only, on your present property. This allows the owner to use the equity to purchase a new home prior to selling the current home. With a bridge loan, no monthly payments are made. The interest accrues and is due when the old home sells. The term of the loan is 6 months.

Home Equity Line of Credit

This is a second loan that is put against a home. It allows a person to consolidate debt, purchase a new car, money for that dream vacation or swimming pool! It also allows for (consult your tax advisor) most people to deduct the interest from their taxes. Minimal, interest only, payments are required.
