Cannabis Wire (4/17): Realtors’ group calls cannabis and real estate “a budding issue.”

The National Association of Realtors is out this week with a new report on how “the legalization of marijuana continues to impact the real estate industry.”

The report, which was compiled after NAR surveyed 2,550 of its members, looks at residential real estate, commercial real estate, and “perception of crime,” among other things.

With residential real estate, NAR found that 10% of respondents in adult use states “believed inventory was tight for multiple reasons, including as a result of this industry.” Respondents also found “no noticeable change in residential property values near dispensaries.”

The survey even asked about grow houses and found that 20% of members in states where adult use was legal for at least five years “had sold a grow house in the past.”

With commercial real estate, “nearly half” of respondents in adult use states “reported an increase in demand for commercial spaces, with this increasing over time.” Also, most respondents said that commercial property values near cannabis shops saw no change in value.

Finally, nearly half of respondents said that there is “no change in perception of crime” near cannabis shops.
