That optionality and location in Oregon\u2019s eighth-most-populous city provides what Kennedy Funding said was significant long-term development potential, adding to the site\u2019s appeal despite the city\u2019s challenging economy, increasing unemployment and cooling health care jobs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is the type of loan Kennedy Funding specializes in,\u201d said Jared Levitt, a loan officer at Kennedy Funding. \u201cWhen traditional lenders can\u2019t deliver, we can often find a way forward by focusing on the value of the real estate. In this case, the site\u2019s combination of commercial and residential development potential gave us confidence in the opportunity and provided the borrower with multiple development options.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The firm noted that the property, located across from Centennial Golf Club, also provides convenient access to Interstate 5, Oregon Route 99, downtown Medford and Rogue Valley International Airport.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOpportunities like this don\u2019t fit neatly into a conventional lending box,\u201d said Kevin Wolfer, CEO and president of Kennedy Funding. \u201cThat\u2019s where private lending can make a meaningful difference. By taking a practical approach and understanding the unique characteristics of each transaction, we can provide borrowers with the capital they need when traditional financing sources may not be an option.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>                    <a href=\"#\" rel=\"nofollow\" onclick=\"window.print(); return false;\" title=\"Printer Friendly, PDF &amp; Email\"><br \/>\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"pf-button-img\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1779452828_735_print-button-gray.png\" alt=\"Print Friendly, PDF &amp; Email\" style=\"width: 66px;height: 24px;\"\/><br \/>\n                    <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A nearly 35-acre tract at North Phoenix Road and Coal Mine Road in Medford, Oregon, includes roughly 10.1&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":240480,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[38],"tags":[128,9,24,63,129,131,130],"class_list":["post-267247","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-the-bronx","tag-bronx","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc","tag-the-bronx","tag-the-bronx-headlines","tag-the-bronx-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/267247","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=267247"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/267247\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/240480"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=267247"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=267247"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=267247"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
