It allows you to use equity in your current home to buy another. The payment is differed until the bridge loan is called, normally in 6 months to a year. Most bridge loan lenders will allow you to use up to 90% of the value of your current home. Example if you r home is worth $100,000 and you owe 20,000 you can use 70,000 towrds a down payment. Then when your house sells you pay the bridge loan and original note off. Problems arise when your current home does not sell before the bridge loan period is up. You are then forced to start making 2 mortgage payments. If you live in an area where real estate is slow i would really weigh other options before using a bridge loan.

You need to inquire at your banking facility for such financing. Be aware that, if your income levels do not allow you to make both existing mortgage payments AND interest payments on the bridge loan, you may not receive one.
