Country Club with Golf Course Coming to Maine with Help of $3.4
Million Loan From Kennedy Funding
HACKENSACK,
N.J., A land parcel of more than 360 acres
in Wells, Maine, is about to get a new life, with the help of a
bridge loan in the amount of $3,468,000 from Kennedy Funding, a
direct private lender based in Hackensack, NJ. Just a few miles
from Kennebunkport, where the first President Bush has a beach
house, the land is now slated for extensive, high-end development.
The Burnt Mill Country Club and golf course and Burnt Mill Estates
residential community have all their necessary approvals in place,
but construction has been stalled by the inability to secure funds
through traditional sources. The banks were reluctant to lend without
further progress, and investor funding was necessary to continue
the project. Kennedy Funding's loan commitment of nearly $3.5 million
will allow the borrower to complete the infrastructure and build
out the golf course, club house, and residences as planned.
The Burnt Mill Country Club will feature an 18-hole,
7,200 yard championship course, only the second such course created
by the
design team of PGA Tour Player Brad Faxon and golf architect
Brad Booth. It will also sport a 9-hole par 3 short course, a
practice range, and a 12,000 sq. ft. clubhouse. Residential condominiums
will flank the course in neighborhoods that constitute the Burnt
Mill Estates, comprising a total of 85 units. These homes will
range from single family lots to duplex lots and townhouses.
Considering that the terrain is typically rural, full of dense
woods, rolling hills, rock outcroppings and meadows, the scenic
quality of the land should accentuate its natural beauty, appealing
to golfer and non-golfer alike. The former President Bush has
already expressed interest in membership at the country club.
Richard
and Melodee James are the owners of Burnt Mill Development, LLC,
which is being built on land that has been in the James
family for more than 100 years. Kennedy Funding entered the picture
on the advice of George Marderosian, Burnt Mills' financial advisor,
who is helping guide the project to fruition. "The banks
wanted to see more equity in the project," explained Melodee
James. "And we wanted to continue building the infrastructure
for the golf course was in place, but the financial support was
not. George brought us to Kennedy and now we are really ready
to move ahead."
Jeffrey Wolfer, president of Kennedy Funding, felt the property
had a great deal of intrinsic value. "The lush rural location
of the land means that this development, or a variation of it,
would be a good choice for developing its potential. With final
approval already in place for land use, we applied our evaluation
process and quickly came up with a loan agreement."
Adds Gregg Wolfer, a Kennedy Funding partner, "We
are pleased to be part of a project that will bring a world-class
golf course
and some fine estate residences to the natural beauty of southern
Maine."
Kennedy Funding offers loans to an increasingly wide
range of borrowers, from land-use developers to resort builders,
entrepreneurs,
and major businessmen. They have the resources to provide loans
of $1 million to $100 million, making loan commitments in as
little as 24 hours, and closing quickly, often in just 2 weeks.
While
specializing in commercial real estate loans, Kennedy Funding
has expanded its scope of lending to include a wide range
of enterprises, including amusement parks, high-profile golf
courses, TV and radio stations, airlines, and sports complexes,
among others. Their extensive knowledge base and solid reputation
has seen them manage everything from the most complex of financial
transactions to simple acquisitions, workouts, refinancing, bankruptcies,
and foreclosures.
