When buying a home before the previous home is transferred, ask the lender which valuation is needed for the bridging finance.
Identify the property and report
Your adviser should confirm whether an appraisal is required and for which home. Share the financing deadline.
Use your own interest figures
The interest calculator uses a loan amount, annual rate and number of days. It does not predict appraisal delays or promise savings.
Useful tools
Open the calculators or build your document checklist. Request an appraisal when you know the report requirement.
