Missouri real estate investors: close your next deal in 7-10 days. Bridge financing built for speed — no appraisal, no tax returns, no DTI. Up to 85% LTV. 6-24 month terms. Interest-only payments. Compete with cash buyers on off-market deals.
Check My Missouri Rate →Missouri real estate investors use bridge loans for time-sensitive opportunities: competing with cash buyers, closing before your existing property sells, funding a rehab before refinancing, or buying at auction. The common thread is speed — bridge financing closes in 7-10 days when a conventional loan would take 45-60.
A bridge loan is short-term financing (typically 6-24 months) that funds an investment property purchase or refinance without the paperwork overhead of a long-term mortgage. No tax returns. No appraisal in most cases. No debt-to-income calculation. You qualify on the deal itself and the exit strategy — either sale or refinance into permanent financing.
Bridge financing is especially valuable in Kansas City and St. Louis where investor competition is intense. When you can close in 10 days with no financing contingencies, sellers accept your offer over higher offers that need 45 days and traditional underwriting.

A bridge loan is short-term financing — typically 6-24 months — that funds an investment property purchase or refinance while you arrange a more permanent solution. Unlike a conventional mortgage, bridge loans use deal-based underwriting: the property, the exit strategy, and your credit matter most. No W-2, no tax returns, no DTI calculation.
The speed advantage comes from two places: no traditional appraisal (a BPO runs in days, not weeks) and simplified documentation. This lets LendingStreet close Missouri bridge loans in 7-10 days from complete application. For investors competing with cash buyers or chasing time-sensitive opportunities, that speed is worth the rate premium over long-term financing.
After the bridge term, you exit in one of two ways: sell the property or refinance into a long-term DSCR rental loan. LendingStreet can handle both exits on the same property — giving you flexibility as market conditions evolve.

Bridge loans exist because investors lose deals to cash buyers. In Missouri's competitive investor markets, a 10-day close with no appraisal contingency beats a 45-day conventional offer — even if the cash offer is lower. Sellers value certainty of close.
Most Missouri bridge loans skip the traditional appraisal and use a Broker Price Opinion (BPO) instead. This shaves 2-3 weeks off the closing timeline and removes the risk of the appraisal killing the deal. BPOs are faster and less expensive than appraisals.
Bridge loans allow borrowing in an LLC or other entity — standard for serious Missouri investors. This provides asset protection and separates your investment activity from personal finances. LendingStreet bridge loans never require a personal guarantee in most structures.
Every bridge loan needs a clear exit. Most Missouri bridge borrowers plan to either sell the property (after flipping or market appreciation) or refinance into a 30-year DSCR rental loan. LendingStreet can structure both exits — ask about bridge-to-perm programs that transition automatically.

LendingStreet bridge loans in Missouri typically close in 7-10 days from complete application. Some close even faster when documentation is ready. This speed comes from skipping the traditional appraisal (using a BPO instead) and using deal-based underwriting rather than W-2 income verification.
Up to 85% LTV on purchase, up to 75% LTV on refinance or cash-out. Higher LTV requires stronger credit and clear exit strategy. Typical bridge LTV is 70-80%.
No traditional appraisal required in most cases. LendingStreet uses a Broker Price Opinion (BPO) which is faster and less expensive. This is one of the primary reasons bridge loans close faster than conventional financing.
Bridge rates in Missouri are market-competitive depending on credit, LTV, property type, and term. Higher than DSCR rates because bridge loans are shorter term and riskier for lenders. Worth the premium when you need speed.
Standard bridge terms are 6-24 months. Most Missouri investors use 12-18 months — enough time to complete a flip, stabilize a rental, or refinance into a long-term loan. Extensions available if needed.
Yes. Bridge loans can fund rehab in one of two ways: (1) roll rehab budget into the loan and draw as you complete work, or (2) use a pure bridge for acquisition and a separate fix and flip loan for rehab. LendingStreet handles both structures.
Single family (1-4 unit), multifamily, mixed-use, some commercial. Properties must be for investment only — no primary residences. Some lender programs also cover land and ground-up construction scenarios.
Yes — this is the bridge-to-perm strategy. LendingStreet can finance your bridge and then refinance into a 30-year DSCR rental loan on the same property. Same team, same closing process, one less set of paperwork. Most Missouri bridge borrowers exit this way rather than selling.
