One owner in the data - name withheld - took short-term bridging to buy and refurbish a block, expecting to refinance onto a term loan within the year. The works ran over, the valuation came in light, and the exit finance has slipped. Bridging is expensive and it does not wait. He is not insolvent, but the clock is the loudest thing in the room - and a fast, certain sale is often the only way to beat it.

The data behind owners like him
| Signal | In the data | Why it points to a sale |
|---|---|---|
| On bridging finance | Short-term, high-cost debt on the asset | 13,857 UK property owners run on bridging finance |
| Low cash | Little left to service the bridge | 44.5% of bridging borrowers are low on cash |
| Exit slipped | Refinance or sale delayed | A certain sale beats an expensive clock |
Bridging is the most time-pressured debt in property. When the exit slips and cash is thin, the borrower becomes one of the most urgent off-market sellers there is.
