Our Approach to Residential Bridging Loans — Doing Things Differently

Apex isn’t your average bridging lender. We like to do things a little differently, looking for reasons to lend, rather than reasons not to. Our dedicated team of Directors, Underwriters, Business Development Managers and Lending Administrators work hand-in-hand with specialist solicitors and surveyors to ensure that every client receives an exceptional level of service.

We never base our decisions on rudimentary credit checks or past financial conduct alone — we make decisions on a case-by-case basis and go the extra mile to tailor our bridging loans to each client’s individual circumstances.

Apex Bridging is committed to ethical lending and determined to do things the right way. We operate with no hidden fees, no exit charges and no red tape to hold back loans and cause delays — that’s why we can offer up to 90% LTV and release funds within seven days of application.
