What is a relocation loan

What is a Relocation Loan?

A relocation loan is a short-term loan that bridges the financial gap between buying your next property and selling your current one. It gives you access to funds using the equity in your existing property as security, so you can move forward on a purchase without waiting for your home to sell first.

Once your current property sells, the proceeds repay the loan. Your existing mortgage stays in place; there's no need to refinance or restructure what's already working.

Relocation loans are a form of bridging finance designed specifically for homeowners buying and selling simultaneously. For Mango Mortgages consumer loans, the exit strategy must be the sale of the security property, a requirement under NCCP legislation. This is also the whole point of a relocation loan: you're already planning to sell, so the loan is structured around exactly that.

Relocation Loans vs Bridging Loans

The two products are closely related: both are short-term, property-secured loans repaid from a property sale. The distinction is mostly one of framing and purpose.

A bridging loan covers a broad range of buy-before-you-sell and timing-gap scenarios, including investment purchases, auction finance, and business-related property transactions. Relocation loans are designed for homeowners who are moving (upgrading, downsizing, or changing locations) and need funds to secure the next property before their current one sells. The loan is structured around the residential move, with repayment tied directly to the sale of the existing home.
