Do we get all the money in a lump sum?

Most ElderLife Bridge Loans are structured like a line of credit. You only draw down what you need on a monthly basis. While we approve you for the credit limit, you only pay interest on what you borrow and you only pay back what you drew down. However, if you need a large sum up front, ElderLife can structure the loan as an amortizing loan. A Financial Concierge® will work with you to determine the best structure for you.

What can the money be used for?

Your funds are sent directly to the senior living community quickly and easily. Each month you decide what you would like to send, and the amount you request can vary month by month.

Can I pay off the loan early?

There is no prepayment penalty on the loan. You can pay the entire balance due at any time during the life of the loan without penalty.
