In this episode of the Investors Row Podcast, host Ramez Fakury sits down with Chris Reese, Founder and CEO of MJ REIT, to break down a unique alternative investment strategy that allows accredited investors to gain exposure to the cannabis industry inside a retirement account — without investing directly in cannabis itself.
Chris explains how MJ REIT focuses on cannabis-related commercial real estate, providing short-term senior mortgages to licensed operators who lack access to traditional bank financing due to federal regulations. Because the fund does not touch the cannabis plant, it can be structured for use within self-directed IRAs and other qualified retirement accounts.
The conversation explores why cannabis real estate remains a capital-constrained, high-growth sector, how MJ REIT targets monthly income distributions, and how risk is mitigated through conservative underwriting and senior secured lending. The episode also covers potential regulatory changes, including federal rescheduling and banking reform, and how those shifts could impact future returns.
