First-mortgage bridge financing for multifamily and healthcare properties being bought, leased up or repositioned, with a defined exit from day one.
A short-term, first-mortgage loan for a multifamily or healthcare property that is being acquired, leased up or repositioned. It gives the property time to stabilize, then is repaid by a long-term loan, often a HUD-insured permanent loan through affiliate Bravo Capital.
Three situations BPT's bridge lending is built for.
Close quickly on an apartment building or senior care property that doesn't yet qualify for long-term financing.
Carry a newly finished property while occupancy and income build toward a permanent loan.
Fund the period while an owner upgrades units, operations or management, then refinance at the improved value.
BPT's Bridge-to-HUD loans are planned from day one to move into a HUD-insured permanent loan.
BPT closes a first-mortgage bridge loan, underwritten in-house.
The property leases up or completes its improvements while the HUD application is prepared.
Affiliate Bravo Capital, MAP and LEAN approved, refinances into HUD 223(f), 221(d)(4) or 232.
Example: BPT's $68 million senior construction loan for the 180-unit Waterwalk development in Bayonne, New Jersey, was structured as a Bridge-to-HUD loan.

Multifamily and healthcare properties, including assisted living and skilled nursing, in acquisition, development, lease-up or repositioning.
No. HUD makes its own decision. BPT plans the bridge around a realistic HUD exit, and Bravo Capital, which had a 100% HUD closing rate in 2025, processes the HUD loan.
Yes. Mezzanine is often combined with a BPT bridge or construction loan, with one underwriting team, one timeline and one closing.
BPT underwrites in-house. A senior member of the team reviews every request, and term sheets come in days, not weeks.
