What We Do On A Florida CRE Bridge Financing Engagement
Once the engagement fee is received, the deal is treated as a live Florida bridge financing transaction. The focus is to present a structure that fits lender criteria and a file that can be reviewed quickly by credit teams active in the state.
Initial deal review:
property, market, tenancy, capex, and sponsor profile are reviewed against typical Florida bridge criteria.
Bridge structure outline:
target leverage, term, interest-only period, reserves, and recourse profile are set out with realistic ranges.
Cash flow and metrics:
assessment of in-place NOI, pro forma NOI, DSCR, and sensitivity to lease-up and capex execution.
Collateral and security:
mortgage, pledges, guarantees, reserves, and possible performance triggers are mapped in line with market standards.
Exit analysis:
refinance or sale scenarios, including stress tests on cap rates and permanent loan terms, are summarised for lenders.
Lender and fund targeting:
a shortlist of bridge lenders and debt funds with appetite for Florida commercial real estate is compiled.
Outreach and follow-up:
targeted approaches with a concise package, followed by clarification rounds as lenders request information.
Support through term sheet stage:
assistance in comparing proposals and aligning structure and conditions with the business plan.
The service does not replace legal, tax, or valuation work. It focuses on presenting a bankable bridge structure and managing a lender approach that matches the deal profile.

Start A Florida Commercial Real Estate Bridge Financing Engagement
If you have a Florida commercial property under contract or facing a near-term loan maturity and you are ready to move with a structured bridge financing process, you can pay the engagement fee by bank transfer and share your data room so the work can begin.
Can you guarantee that a Florida bridge loan will close on specific terms›
No. Bridge loan terms and approvals are set by lenders and debt funds based on their risk view, funding costs, and underwriting decisions at the time. The service is built to present a clear structure and lender-ready file, but pricing, leverage, and covenants are determined by third parties, not by Financely.
Do you fund deals directly as a Florida bridge lender›
No. Financely is not a bank or direct lender. The role is to package the Florida commercial real estate transaction, design a credible bridge structure, and coordinate approaches to lenders and funds that lend on this type of asset and location through regulated partners.
What documents should we have ready before paying the engagement fee›
At minimum, expect to provide the purchase agreement or loan statement for refinance, rent roll, trailing operating statements, property photos, a basic capex and business plan, details of sponsor experience and capital, and corporate and personal financials for key principals. A structured data room shortens lender review times and reduces repeated questions.
Can you work on portfolios across several Florida cities in one engagement›
Portfolios can be in scope if there is a coherent structure and lender appetite for the combined exposure. Pricing for larger portfolios may sit above the base engagement fee, depending on the number of assets, markets, and borrowers involved. This is clarified before any payment is made.
What sponsor equity levels do lenders expect on Florida bridge loans›
Lenders usually expect meaningful equity at risk through cash, contributed assets, or rolled equity from prior deals. Levels vary by asset and business plan, but thin equity and aggressive projections are often pushed back. Sponsors should be prepared to demonstrate real capital, not just sweat equity, in the transaction.
