Borrowers will see plenty of bridge options this year. Bridge loans will be great fit for value-add transactions, vacant properties and those that need time for repositioning and lease-up. New lenders are entering the bridge space, which will lead to more favorable terms. Bridge lenders will also start to shift toward riskier properties such as hotels, unanchored retail and student housing in order to get money out the door throughout the year.
