Florida Bridge Loan Disclosure

I am applying for two related mortgage loans from Florida bridge lenders. (together with its successors and assigns, the
“Lender”). One mortgage loan (the “Purchase Loan”) is for the purchase of a new residence or investment property to be located at TBD Anywhere in Florida(the “New Property”), and the other mortgage loan is a bridge loan (the “Bridge Loan”) to be secured by my current residence or investment property located at Somewhere else in Florida, FL33028 (the “Bridge Loan Property”).

The sole purpose of the lender making the Bridge Loan is to provide down payment funds for the purchase of the New Florida Property/

Simultaneous Fundings Required.
If the Bridge Loan Property is my current residence, due to regulatory requirements, I will be required to sign the Bridge Loan documents before signing the Purchase Loan documents. It is, however, an unconditional requirement for funding the Bridge Loan that the Purchase Loan be closed and funded. Therefore, even if the loan documents for the Bridge Loan have been signed, the Bridge Loan will not be funded unless and until all conditions for the purchase of the New Property have been satisfied, the loan documents for the Purchase Loan have been signed, and the Purchase Loan is also ready to be funded.

Listing of Departure Residence Required.
It is a requirement of the Bridge Loan that the Bridge Loan Property be listed for sale and remain listed for sale until the Bridge Loan is paid off. If the Bridge Loan Property does not remain listed until the Bridge Loan is paid off, it will be a default under the Bridge Loan, entitling the Lender to accelerate the maturity of the Bridge Loan and commence foreclosure proceedings against the Bridge Loan Property.

Cross-Default.
The Purchase Loan will provide that a default under the Bridge Loan is also a default under the Purchase Loan, and if the Bridge Loan is not paid when due, whether by acceleration or at stated maturity, the Purchase Loan will be in default and may be accelerated, and foreclosure proceedings may be commenced against the New Residence.
By signing below, I hereby acknowledge reading and understanding all of the information disclosed above, and receiving a copy of this disclosure on the date indicated below.
