Bridging finance is used in the UK mostly by people buying at auction or for professionals that are buying a property to do up then re-finance. It is a short term finance and usually has fairly high fees - but as it is so fast, it is beneficial for some investors to use it. More recently people seem to be using bridging finance for deposits ... there is a new style of investing "Off Plan" that took off around 2002 (dangerous in my opinion - read here). Investors want to appear to have a deposit to put down on a property if they are trying to do a no money down or gifted deposit deal of 15% or so, but are applying for a cashback mortgage - or no money down gifted deposit deal. They use the bridging deposit to make the main lender happy - then give it back when they complete and get the cash out. Bridging Finance and Mortgages
