Seniors can secure up to&nbsp;12 months of payments to allow them to transition to a program while&nbsp;awaiting final benefit approval or&nbsp;a payout from the sale of&nbsp;a home. Available as a lump sum payment or as a line of credit, bridge loans&nbsp;can also help fund transitional costs such as moving expenses. Approval is often quick. These loans can have up to six borrowers, minimizing&nbsp;approval concerns centering around individual creditworthiness or the health and age of&nbsp;the senior&nbsp;receiving services. Borrowers are expected to furnish information about the anticipated source of permanent funding during the application process.
