Finance · Commercial bridging

Commercial assets.
Short-term capital with purpose.

Flexible bridging for commercial acquisitions, refinances, vacant assets and business-purpose capital raising.

The Wentworth view

Value matters, but the commercial plan drives the answer.

Commercial bridging can support assets that are vacant, transitional, owner-occupied or unsuitable for immediate term lending.

We present the lease, trading or repositioning story alongside the valuation and exit so the case is assessed in context.

This service is limited to unregulated, business-purpose property finance.
