The Knock Bridge Loan Plus: Unlock Even More Buying Power with Departing Mortgage Payoff

January 22, 2026

Knock Bridge Loan Plus

Buying a new home before selling your current one is rarely simple. Timing gaps, contingent offers, and market uncertainty can create unnecessary stress for buyers, agents, and lenders alike. That's why Knock continues to evolve its Buy Before You Sell solution—starting with the Knock Bridge Loan Plus.

Designed for today's housing market, Knock Bridge Loan Plus builds on the foundation of our standard bridge loan while offering greater flexibility, faster qualification, and enhanced buying power for qualified homeowners.

What Is the Knock Bridge Loan Plus?

The Knock Bridge Loan Plus is a flexible financing solution that allows qualified homeowners to not only access their home equity to buy a new home before selling their current one, but also to pay off their entire departing property mortgage, saving 6 months of interest payments.

Like the Knock Bridge Loan, Plus helps eliminate home sale contingencies, strengthen purchase offers, and give buyers confidence in competitive markets. The difference lies in how the product can be used.

How Knock Bridge Loan Plus Differs from the Standard Knock Bridge Loan

While both products are designed to help homeowners move forward without waiting on a sale, Knock Bridge Loan Plus offers enhanced affordability. With Plus, Knock pays off the borrower's existing mortgage—removing PITI from DTI calculations and eliminating double payments.

The result is a solution that works for a wider range of borrowers and real-world scenarios.

Who Is Knock Bridge Loan Plus Best For?

Knock Bridge Loan Plus is ideal for homeowners who:

  • Want to pay off their existing mortgage to remove 6 months of interest (PITI) and qualify for more on their next home
  • Need more flexibility in pairing Knock with other loan products
  • Want to buy a new home before selling their current one
  • Need access to home equity to make a strong, non-contingent offer
  • Prefer more flexibility in how funds are used
  • Are navigating competitive or time-sensitive markets

For lenders and real estate agents, Plus provides a powerful alternative to traditional contingencies and complex workarounds—without adding friction to the transaction.
