Bridge
Loan Program

Many times, sellers will not accept "contingencies" in
contracts that they are accepting for the purchase of their home.
For example, sellers do not want to accept contracts that require
that the buyers' current residence must be sold before they can
purchase the new home. They want to know that, even if the buyers'
current home has not been sold that they will be able to qualify
for the new purchase. The solution to this is a bridge loan from
Merchants Mortgage.
Kim
Hubbard at Merchants
Mortgage offers two unique financing solutions to meet the needs
of individuals wanting to purchase a new house prior to the sale
of their existing residence. The first option is a simple 2nd Deed
of Trust (DOT) Bridge Loan against the current residence. This loan
pulls equity from the old home to be used as a down payment on the
new house. This option works well for people who have sufficient
income to support the debt load within conforming mortgage guidelines.
The
second option is a Cross-Collateralized Bridge loan with a 2nd DOT
on the existing residence and a 1st DOT on the new home. This loan
can fund 100% of the purchase price, provided that there is sufficient
available equity in the old house. The Cross-Collateralized Bridge
Loan is the solution if income will not support (according to conventional
mortgage guidelines) the additional debt. Merchants Mortgage has
expanded debt-to-income guidelines that make this product viable
if conforming mortgages are not available. Upon the sale of the
old residence, Merchants Mortgage will do a partial release of the
old home. The borrower will then refinance the remaining balance
into a long-term conventional mortgage secured by the new residence.
