Bridging Loan Secures Property Purchase After Bank Withdrawal

When John’s lender pulled out just 13 days before settlement due to restrictions around the number of units in his building, his property purchase and deposit were suddenly at risk.
Mango Credit moved swiftly to secure the deal, protect his investment, and ensure the settlement went through on time.
The situation
John was in the final stages of buying his home when his lender withdrew finance. The reason? The property was in a block with more than 35 units, a common barrier for some mainstream banks.
With settlement just under two weeks away, he faced losing his deposit and a valuable builder’s bonus, and missing out on a home that was already building equity.
How Mango Credit responded
With time running out, John turned to Mango Credit. The team reviewed the scenario promptly and offered a short-term bridging loan solution that didn’t rely on blanket policies or inflexible criteria.
From valuation to legal documentation and funding, every step was fast-tracked, allowing John to settle on time.
