Why is it so hard to get a mortgage while working in the Cannabis Industry?
Despite the cannabis industry employing over 400,000 Americans, most traditional banks still say “no” due to federal regulations.
At Herring Bank, we see things differently. We understand that your state-legal income is real, stable, and worthy of financing. We’ve built specialized programs to bridge the gap between federal restrictions and your homeownership goals.
