About Our bridging loan Service

Buy Your Next Home Without The Financial Stress

The Perth property market moves quickly. When you find the right home, you usually can’t afford to wait months for your current property to sell — especially if you’re competing with other buyers. A bridging loan fills the gap between buying your new home and settling on your old one, so you can move on your own terms.

 

Most Perth homeowners find the timing of selling and buying at the same time incredibly stressful. A bridging loan removes that pressure. Instead of rushing to accept a low offer on your current home just to free up funds, you buy what you want first and sell when you’re ready — typically within 6 to 12 months.

 

At Encharge Capital, we make the bridging loan process straightforward. We look at your current property value, your existing loan, and your new purchase price — then structure a bridging facility that keeps your repayments manageable during the transition. We compare options across 40+ lenders and handle everything from application to settlement, so you’re not dealing with two lenders at once on your own.

Our Process

How We Make Your Property Transition Seamless

01

We Review Your Current Property & Loan

We start by looking at what your current Joondalup or Perth property is worth, what you still owe on it, and what equity you’ve built up. This tells us exactly how much bridging finance you can access and what the repayments will look like during the gap period — before you commit to anything.

 
02

We Structure Your Bridging Finance

Not all bridging loans work the same way. We look at your new purchase price, your current loan, and your expected sale timeline — and structure a facility that keeps your costs manageable. We also look at capitalised interest options if you don’t want to make repayments on both loans at the same time.

 
03

We Get You Approved Fast

In the Perth property market, speed matters. Once we know the right lender and structure, we get your application moving quickly. We handle all the paperwork and deal directly with the lender so you can focus on the property — not the admin. We know which lenders process bridging loans fastest and we use that knowledge every time.

 
04

We Manage Settlement & The Switch

Once your current property sells, we coordinate the discharge of your bridging facility and the transition to your long-term mortgage. We deal with both lenders, make sure the numbers land correctly, and restructure your remaining balance into a clean, competitive standard home loan — so you finish the process in a strong position.

Why Perth Homeowners Choose Encharge Capital

We’re based in Joondalup and we specialise in helping Perth homeowners navigate property transitions. We know the northern suburbs market — what properties are moving for, how long sales are taking, and which lenders are the most flexible when it comes to bridging finance.

 

Bridging loans are more complex than standard home loans. You’re essentially holding two properties at once, and the structure of the loan matters a lot. We make sure you go into it with your eyes open — knowing exactly what the repayments are, what happens at each stage, and what your end loan will look like once your current property settles.

 

We’ve helped homeowners across Joondalup, Hillarys, Duncraig, and the wider Perth metro make the move they wanted — without the financial stress of getting the timing wrong. Let us show you what’s possible.

FAQs

Bridging Finance Questions From Perth Homeowners

How long is the standard bridging loan period in WA?

Most bridging loans run for 6 to 12 months — enough time to sell your existing property without being rushed. The exact term depends on your lender and your situation. We always build in a realistic buffer based on current Perth market conditions, so you’re not under pressure to accept the first offer that comes in on your current home.
 

Do I need to make repayments on both loans during the bridging period?

Not necessarily. Many lenders offer capitalised interest during the bridging period — meaning the interest on your bridging loan is added to the balance rather than being charged monthly. This keeps your out-of-pocket costs lower while you’re carrying both properties. We’ll show you what works for your budget and cash flow.
 

What's the exit strategy if my property doesn't sell in time?

This is exactly the question we make sure every client thinks through before they commit. We look at what happens at the end of the bridging term — whether that’s extending the facility, switching to a standard mortgage, or another option — and we structure the loan with a clear plan from day one. We won’t put you in a position where you’re scrambling if the sale takes longer than expected.
 

Can I use bridging finance for an investment property purchase?

Yes. Bridging loans aren’t just for owner-occupiers. Perth investors sometimes use bridging finance to secure a new investment property before selling an existing one — particularly when timing is critical. We’ll look at your overall position and structure it in a way that’s tax-effective and appropriate for investment use.
