Changing regulations and attitudes towards cannabis use are transforming the industry, leading to new opportunities in the real estate sector. Zoned Properties (OTCQB: ZDPY), a technology-driven property investment company, focuses on seizing direct-to-consumer real estate opportunities in the rapidly growing and regulated cannabis market.
Cannabis businesses are expanding significantly as regulations evolve, leading to an increased demand for specialized, direct-to-consumer properties that include dispensaries, manufacturing or processing centers, and distribution hubs. Real estate investors are capitalizing on this demand by acquiring properties for rental income generation while potentially realizing significant property value appreciation as the industry grows.
A case in point is Michigan, where investors, developers, and brokers swiftly pivoted to procure targeted property investments focusing on the needs of cannabis-specific businesses. Along with retail locations, other requirements in Michigan include warehouses, industrial spaces, and growing facilities (https://ibn.fm/F7hMN).
In alignment with the evolving market, ZDPY has recently secured and acquired investment properties in Michigan, Arizona, and Illinois. All properties in ZDPY’s portfolio boast 100% occupancy and a weighted average lease term of 10+ years. Each leased property is occupied by a commercial cannabis tenant, and the company anticipates more than $2.5 million from its property investment portfolio in 2024.
Zoned Properties Brokerage has closed over $80 million of commercial real estate deals nationally since 2021. The company reported revenues of $720,450 for the quarter, ending September 30, 2023 – a 17.2% year-over-year increase. In addition, ZDPY reported a positive net income of $114,523 for the September 2023 quarter compared to a net loss of $77,328 last year.
ZDPY is also leveraging digital innovation through its proprietary cannabis technology platform, called REZONE. Similar endeavors have leveraged data-driven insights, analytics, and artificial intelligence to identify potential investment properties, streamline processes, and enhance efficiency.
Overall, industry experts are optimistic about growth prospects for the industry as public attitudes shift rapidly in favor of increased liberalization. In his State of the Union Address, President Biden called for cannabis reform, specifically his intent to review marijuana rescheduling and possibly issue pardons for thousands of users convicted of possession (https://ibn.fm/15DtO).
Based in Arizona, Zoned Properties is led by Chairman and CEO Bryan McLaren, whose background in community development and strategic leadership informs the company’s forward-thinking strategy. As the cannabis industry continues its forward trajectory, Zoned Properties is favorably positioned to capitalize on real estate opportunities in the rapidly expanding market.
