Cannabis Mortgages In Michigan

Take the 30 second mortgage quiz to see if you qualify

Are you looking to get a cannabis mortgage loan in Michigan?

I can help. 

The marijuana industry is one of the trickiest areas of home financing.

Marijuana is legal for adult use in Michigan. A federal rule effective April 28, 2026 moved FDA approved marijuana drug products and state licensed medical marijuana to Schedule III, but adult use marijuana is not covered and remains Schedule I.

Sadly, because of this, most banks will turn down anyone working in the marijuana industry.

The great news is it is possible for cannabis industry workers to get approved for a home loan.

Because I am a licensed Mortgage Loan Originator working through Edge Home Finance, LLC, a mortgage broker in Michigan with access to 150 lenders, I am able to find mortgage companies that are ok with doing weed related mortgage financing.

State law last reviewed August 27, 2026.

Separate from the income question, and easy to miss: Michigan’s disabled veteran property tax exemption removes 100 percent of the property tax on your home once you qualify, with no partial version and no income test, on Form 5107. You file it with your county assessor and it has nothing to do with how you earn your money.
