PORTLAND, OR – HFF announced it has closed the sale of Medford Center, a 335,043-square-foot, movie theater-anchored regional retail center in Medford, Oregon.

               HFF marketed the properties on behalf of the seller, Kimco Realty Corporation.  LBG Realty Advisors, LLC purchased the asset free and clear of debt.       

Medford Center is situated on 30.14 acres at 501-1093 Medford Center at the intersection of Biddle Road and East Jackson Street along Medford’s main Biddle Road retail corridor with direct access to Interstate 5. 

Most recently renovated in 1997, the center is 87 percent leased to a variety of national and regional tenants, including Sears, Cinemark Theatres, International Fitness, Ashley Furniture HomeStores, Rogue Air Park and John L. Scott Real Estate. 

               The HFF investment sales team representing the seller was led by managing director Nicholas Bicardo, director Nick Kucha and real estate analysts Logan Greer and Brandon Rogoff.

“Medford Center received very strong interest from private and institutional buyers targeting non-primary markets,” Bicardo said.  

“We continue to see no shortage of equity and/or debt capital chasing yield in these types of markets.  Medford Center is a great entree into the Pacific Northwest given the size and tenancy. ”
