GLIF Deck - Final
Since January 2014, industrial real estate pricing has begun to soar for sale and lease have increased two to three fold or more. These properties were generally constructed from the 1940s to 1980s and typically lease for around $5.00 per square foot, triple-net and sell for $40.00 to $55.00 per square foot to mainstream companies. Due to the incredible demand and a lack of appropriately located properties, those same properties are now leasing for $15.00 to $18.00 per square foot, triple-net and are selling in the $85.00 per square foot range.
The Industry
According to the International Cannabis Business, the amount of places to rent/lease versus how many people want to find a commercial real estate spot is completely in favor of the real estate owners and companies that operate in the space. That balance is shifting more and more into the favor of the owner everyday. Not just in Colorado, but in any area where cannabis businesses are allowed to operate.
Our Mission
Green Leaf Investment Fund's mission will be to serve as a publicly traded company that identifies, targets, develops and operates marijuana growing warehouses and other types of commercial growing investment properties within legal cannabis real estate zoning sectors. We will than lease these properties for above market returns or sell them Themarket. Industry on the open GLIF will also utilize its subsidiaries Bud Properties LLC and Stocks Marijuana LLC to bring the latest cannabis properties for sale on the market to the public as well as providing the latest news regarding publicly traded stocks in the sector and the ever changing news effecting the industry.
The Industry ArcView reported the Cannabis industry growing to $6.7 Billion in 2016. They project the industry to grow to a staggering $21.8 Billion by 2020, by comparison the NFL had roughly $12 Billion in revenue last year. This is the potential we are looking at and intend to grab a market share of this exploding industry with you. If cannabis is legalized federally the industry is expected to grow to a staggering $100 Billion over the next ten years.
Reasons to invest in real estate: • Competitive Risk-Adjusted Returns • High Tangible Asset Value • Attractive and Stable Income Return • Portfolio Diversification • Inflation Hedging • The Bottom Line: Real estate is a distinct asset class that is simple to understand and can enhance the risk and return profile of your portfolio. On its own, real estate offers competitive risk-adjusted returns, with less principal-agent conflict and attractive income streams. It can also enhance a portfolio, by lowering volatility through diversification.
Why Real Estate
The Cannabis industry has many obstacles when it comes to securing financing for real estate acquisitions. Traditional financing is not readily available despite the lucrative opportunity for returns, creating a market for our fund to deliver investment capital with considerable returns for our investors.
The Problem
Our Solution We will use the funds raised through our crowdfunding effort to purchase these properties with cash and receive rents of 5 to 10 times the going market rate. GLIF will leverage these properties with hard money lenders to quickly expand our portfolio. We will lease these properties on a long term NNN basis with an expected annualized return of approximately 40-50%. Through our other business units we will create an eco system that will drive brand awareness and consumer visibility in the market place to fulfill our deal flow.
Our Advantage The company has the benefit of crowd funding to raise equity, whereas our competition is forced to take on convertible debt to acquire funds. This leads to dilution and in effect hurts the investors investment. By offering equity in return for investments the company will be able to keep a tight share structure to ensure investors see a return on their original investment. Investing in a company already trading, brings several risks, such as dilution. By investing in Green Leaf Investment Fund you have the opportunity to own equity in a ground level cannabis company at the IPO price. As the company acquires assets and generates revenue the PPS will appreciate in value. The company will not need to dilute as we will be re-investing our revenues into the company to acquire more buildings and grow our portfolio out.
Our Verticals
The company will be purchasing real estate in states where marijuana laws are in place to allow the use of cannabis. These specialized properties are leased to growers at approximately 4 or 5 times the market rate. We have located several properties in legal markets that are positioned for significant returns.
Bud Properties serves as an MLS for cannabis centric real estate listings and parcels of land to be leveraged for cannabis cultivation. The website will leverage managements relationships in the industry with hard money lenders to help investors find the ideal financing for their property, business or equipment. Bud Properties will also serve as an affiliate to HerbFronts proprietary platform.
Stocksmarijuana.com will provide the latest news on the cannabis sector as well as news about publicly traded stocks in the cannabis industry. Stocks Marijuana will allow companies to advertise with us as we build our user base. We will also send out monthly newsletters on changes occurring in the evolving cannabis industry
Target Market The company is focused on finding growers that have experience operating large grow sites for the properties that we purchase. We are focused on investors looking to enter the cannabis industry with a company that is at the ground level. We will also be targeting realtors and investors to use our subsidiaries Bud Properties and Stocks Marijuana. Two tech plays that the industry doesn’t have good alternatives for at this point. Green Leaf Investment Fund aims to fill these voids with both of these websites.
Use Of Funds The company goal is to raise $5MM to purchase commercial real estate buildings specifically designed for cannabis growers. We intend to purchase two buildings in CA and one building in MA. The company has targeted several buildings in CA for purchase ranging from $1.5MM to $2MM and a property in MA being sold for approximately $850K. The leases are being negotiated by the company right now and will have approximately a 40-50% annual ROI with NNN leases for each building. The company anticipates to have revenues of approximately $2.5MM in year 1.
