What is the primary purpose of a temporary loan in real estate?

  1. To replace a traditional mortgage

  2. To provide funds when they are not immediately available to close a sale

  3. To consolidate debt

  4. To finance home renovations

The correct answer is: To provide funds when they are not immediately available to close a sale

A temporary loan in real estate is typically used to bridge the gap between the buying and selling of a property. This is especially useful when the funds for a new purchase are not immediately available, but the borrower cannot afford to wait for the sale of their current property to close. Therefore, options A, C, and D would not be the primary purpose of a temporary loan in real estate.
