Marijuana is Starting to Intersect with Real Estate


Marijuana is Starting to Intersect with Real Estate

You don’t think of the changing status of marijuana in many states as having a real estate impact but it does. In the states where medical marijuana is decriminalized (and in Washington and Colorado, where it’s decriminalized even for non-medical use), landlords and their rental agents have a disclosure issue on their hands. The landlord has to decide whether or not the rental property accommodates marijuana use, and if so, the rental agent has to be sure to adequately disclose the policy to prospective tenants. That’s just one of the issues stemming from the changing legality of this controlled substance.
