Bridge Loans
Pacific Financial Group is pleased to provide bridge loans for the purchase or refinance of owner-occupied single-family homes, 1-to-4-unit residential investment properties, and commercial properties in California.
Owner-Occupied SFR
An owner-occupied bridge-to-perm loan is a means for homeowners to purchase a new home prior to the sale of their existing home. An owner-occupied home is defined as a single-family residence, condominium, townhome, or owner-occupied duplex.
Our owner-occupied bridge to perm loan program allows you to use the equity in your current home to purchase a new home by obtaining one loan against the new property and the existing property combined. When the existing property is sold and the principal balance is reduced by a predetermined amount, the interest in the existing property is released and converted to a fixed term loan that is re-amortized over the remaining term. This structure allows you to make competitive, non-contingent offers on the home you desire, takes the fear and uncertainty out of having to find a new home after selling your current home.
Below are a few notable program features and benefits:
- No need to sell you current home to qualify for new home loan
- Rates start at 6.50% (6.69% APR)* and reduced another .25% at conversion
- Qualification based on the mortgage payments, taxes, and insurance of the new home; excluded from the departing home

- Borrowers may be able to obtain up to 100% of purchase price plus closing costs (subject to equity in departing home and income qualification)
- One loan secured by both properties (1st lien on new home & 1st / 2nd lien on departing home)
