How does gap finance work in construction projects?

Gap finance applies when your primary lender’s construction loan falls short due to unforeseen costs or delays. A secondary lender, often a private funder, provides the necessary additional funds. They typically secure their loan with a second mortgage or caveat on the property. Unlike traditional banks, these lenders focus on the strength of your exit strategy, whether through refinancing or selling the property once the project is complete.

Why are gap finance fees and interest rates higher than standard loans?

Gap  finance involves higher fees and interest rates because it is short-term and  carries more risk for the lender.

What are the risks with gap financing?

The main risks include higher interest rates and the lender’s willingness to enforce their security if you’re unable to repay, such as initiating a sale of the property.
