Seyfarth Shaw LLP has released the results of its fourth annual
Real Estate Market Sentiment Survey, which polled commercial real
estate executives around the country from all sectors. Of interest
to our readers, this year's survey revealed that, despite the
dramatic increase in the number of states legalizing marijuana, 85%
of respondents are putting the brakes on investing in cannabis use
real estate or leasing space to the cannabis industry. This is not
surprising, given the current state of federal law, lack of credit
availability from financial institutions, and lack of title
insurance.
What about the other 15% who do plan on investing in CRE for
marijuana use? Most (70%) do not plan to invest anytime soon,
indicating an investment horizon of at least 2-5 years. Notably,
however, 20% of those respondents planning to participate in the
industry already have their hands in the pot business.
