Frequently asked questions

TAB lends directly to borrowers or through intermediaries. We offer residential loans of up to 70% of the valuation of your project, including the cost of borrowing. There are no exit fees, and we do not lend against your principal residence. 

If you would like to take our first charge residential bridging loan then typically TAB's minimum is £100,000 and the maximum is £15m.

Are residential first charge bridging loans short or long term? Residential first charge bridging loans are usually short term. Typically bridging finance loans are usually between 3-24 months. TAB lends on a first charge basis and our experience means we can be flexible with our valuations and consider projects that more traditional lenders would not.

Residential first charge bridging loans are loans secured against UK residential properties. In the case of a first charge, the lender (TAB) will take precedence and first rights on the property. Common uses of first charge loans include the purchase of investment properties, investment property chain breakers, capital raises, completion of refurbishment and refinancing.
