£4.2 Million Commercial Bridging Loan for Hotel Acquisition

• Loan Amount: £4.2 million
• Security: Commercial hotel property, Manchester
• Property Value: £6.5 million
• Time to Complete: 14 days

Global Bridging Finance was approached by a client seeking urgent funds to acquire a large hotel property in Manchester. The client, an experienced property investor, had secured the hotel at a favourable price but faced a tight completion deadline of just two weeks. Traditional funding routes could not provide the required speed, leaving the client at risk of losing the opportunity.

We sourced a £4.2 million commercial bridging loan secured against the hotel, which was valued at £6.5 million. The facility was structured on a 9-month term, giving the client flexibility to stabilise the asset, improve cash flow, and then refinance with a long-term commercial mortgage.

Given the scale of the transaction, swift coordination was essential. Our team worked closely with valuers, solicitors, and the lender to fast-track the legal and due diligence process. The loan was completed within 14 days, enabling the client to acquire the hotel without delay.

This case highlights the value of bridging finance in the commercial property sector. By providing rapid, tailored funding, Global Bridging Finance allowed the client to secure a high-value asset and proceed with their investment strategy. Our expertise ensured the client not only met the deadline but also had the confidence of a clear exit strategy through planned refinancing.
