But when it comes to securing the finance needed to make this a reality, the process can quickly become stressful. Why many traditional lenders aren’t meeting the needs of over 50s Traditional lenders often have rigid requirements and slow approval times, making it difficult for older homeowners to access funds when they need them. This can leave you waiting—and potentially missing out on your dream home. With strict criteria around age and income for most lending products, many over 50s are left with little choice but to sell their home, sometimes compromising on the sale price, just to secure their next property. On top of this, they can face the added hassle and costs of temporary accommodation, like renting or paying for storage, while they wait to make their next move. A faster and more flexible way to secure funds to downsize Bridging finance can help. Bridging loans are short-term finance designed to help you cover the gap between buying your new property and selling your current one. They let you access your existing property’s value as security on the loan, so you don’t have to wait for a sale. As well as being fast, this gives you the flexibility to sell when the timing is right and secure your dream home.
