About Our Products
Our core strength lies in the offering and provision of various forms of short term bridging finance. The primary focus here is on the offering of the below mentioned products. These products are designed to provide upfront cash flow to corporate entities and individuals in transactions where there is a sale of a property or registration of a new bond pending. The demand arises due to the time period taken in the conveyancing process to ultimately register the transfer of a property or bond, in the Deeds office.
In the case of the sale of a property, this time period is typically between 60 – 90 days and the seller only receives payment of the proceeds from the sale upon registration.
