Kennedy Funding Launches Lending Lounge Web Site

ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J., April 18, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Kennedy Funding, one of the nation's largest private lenders, has launched Kennedy Funding Lending Lounge, a new web site designed to generate conversation and serve as an industry resource. "The purpose is to sort through and make sense of the issues," said Kevin Wolfer, president and CEO of Kennedy Funding.

"The recession's legacy was a banking debacle and a turbulent lending market, and key asset classes – notably real estate – have not completely rebounded," said Wolfer. "There is substantial confusion and apprehension in the decision-making process, for borrowers and lenders alike. While there is certainly money available, the question remains, 'am I making the right decision?'

"Kennedy Funding Lending Lounge is designed to make sense of the issues, a place where people can converse, exchange views, and network," said Wolfer. "Our tagline, 'Just hangin' out and talkin' lending,' clearly defines our intention—to generate conversation and be a resource, to provide an opportunity for borrowers to learn, get the information they need to make educated choices when selecting a lender, to ensure their decisions result in smooth processes, and to be comfortable in doing business in an ever-changing marketplace."

Kennedy Funding Lending Lounge's features include news and views from industry experts and respected columnists and responses to visitors' questions. Current posts include "Interest Rates: Focusing on the Niche Markets," "Land Loans: Money is Available if you Know Where to Look," "How Can you Ensure that your Loan will Close?," "How can I Close a Loan in 10 Days?," "Commitment Fees: They're Part of the Business," "Valuations: What is my Property Really Worth?," and "Note Purchases: A Big Factor in 2013."

Other features include a primer on "What you Need to Know about the Lending Process," a review of industry trends, a Poll of the Week, important industry events and, most importantly, "Ask a Question," offering visitors the opportunity to contact Kennedy Funding's professionals to interact and obtain advice. Answers to your questions will be posted on the web site.
