Bridge Loans to Irrevocable Trusts

A bridge loan is a sum of money lent by a lender to cover a short duration of time between two transactions. Bridge loans are typically used for the buying of one house and the selling of another or during the construction of a home. The bridge loans that we provide at Commercial Loan Corporation are done to help the beneficiary of a trust keep a parents low property tax base on an inherited home.

Can a trust get a bridge loan?

Yes, a trust can receive a bridge loan. That being said, very few lenders will make a loan to an irrevocable trust. Unlike other California lenders, we specialize in helping clients who require a loan on a property that is currently held in an irrevocable trust. We also provide bridge loans on properties that are currently in probate. Not only do we provide bridge loans, loans to irrevocable trusts and probate loans, but we can also provide the funds needed to prepare a home in a trust or estate for sale.

Trust Bridge Loans

Our trust bridge loans have been purpose designed to assist beneficiaries in taking advantage of the California Proposition 19 Parent to Child Property Tax Transfer. Prop 19 allows a parent to transfer their low property tax base to a child and avoid property tax reassessment on the inherited home. Commercial Loan Corp provides a bridge loan directly to the irrevocable trust or probate estate, with no personal guarantee requirement from the beneficiary inheriting the home. This bridge loan meets the California Board of Equalization equalized distribution requirement and avoids a sibling to sibling buyout, which can put your exclusion from property tax reassessment at risk. The bridge loan to a trust loan process is quick and easy. We are able to close a trust bridge loan in as little as 7-10 business days. Our trust bridge loans help clients avoid costly realtor fees and save on average over $6,500 in property taxes annually by avoiding reassessment.

What is a Probate Loan?

Probate loans are loans provided to a home involved in the probate process. Probate is the administration of a deceased person’s estate, with or without a will. A probate loan or estate loan provides funds to the probate estate to accomplish a goal that requires the conversion of equity in the real estate into cash. The probate loan is made directly to the estate. A probate loan must be approved by the probate administrator. We can help guide your through the process and if needed, put you in contact with an Attorney or Property Tax Consultant to assist you with the process.

Why is a Probate Loan needed in some situations?

A Probate loan or estate loan, provides cash to the estate for a variety of purposes. During the probate process, which can be lengthy, the administrator of the estate may need funds to administer the estate. Examples of this may include utility costs, property taxes, property insurance, association fees, legal expenses, paying off outstanding debt, mortgage payments, or property maintenance expenses. Without a probate loan, the estate may not be able to afford to meet the costs of these expenses. A probate loan or estate loan is also often used to buy out siblings when multiple siblings are inheriting a home from a parent. For example, the child that wants to keep the family home can take out an estate loan and buy out the other siblings with the cash provided from the probate loan. If a child wants to keep a parents low property tax base on an inherited home, the County Assessors Office must approve the exclusion for reassessment. One of the requirements of a California Property Tax Transfer and Exclusion for Property Tax Reassessment is that an equal distribution of assets be made to all child heirs / beneficiaries and that if sufficient cash assets do not exist in the estate, that a non-personally guaranteed 3rd party loan be used to equalize the distribution. If the process is not done correctly, the property may be reassessed at the current market value. On average we are able to save our clients over $6,500 per year in property taxes by helping them avoid property tax reassessment on the inherited home. Additionally, we save the estate over $50,000 on average by avoiding the costly realtor fees associated with selling a home, and all of the heirs / beneficiaries are able to take advantage of that savings.

Trust & Estate Loan Benefit Calculator

When you are considering keeping an inherited home from a parent and need to borrow money to buyout siblings or beneficiaries, it is important to make sure that it makes financial sense to do so. To assist you in doing so, we created the Commercial Loan Corporation Trust & Estate Loan Benefit Calculator.

Our trust and estate loan benefit calculator will help you quickly and easily determine if it makes sense to apply for a Proposition 58 exclusion from reassessment and take out a trust or estate loan. The loan benefit calculator compares your property tax savings to your estimated loan expenses and determines approximately how long it will take to recover those costs.  If you plan on keeping the home longer than it will take to recoup the fees, then the loan is of benefit; if not then it would make more sense to not conduct the loan.
