A special congratulations to Rilano Inc
A heartfelt shoutout to our partners at WeCann for their instrumental role in securing our very first cannabis license in our hometown, Covina, California. Navigating the complex landscape of cannabis licensing is no small feat. Covina's merit-based application process is highly competitive, with licenses awarded through a rigorous four-phase evaluation. WeCann's unparalleled expertise in cannabis licensing and real estate was pivotal in guiding us through this intricate journey. Together with our deep understanding of retail operations and their nuances of the licensing process empowered us to stand tall against some of the industry's biggest competitors. This achievement underscores the power of collaboration and specialized knowledge in overcoming industry challenges. Here's to serving the Covina community and many more milestones together! Thanks again !! Kate Popova Meilad Rafiei & Mitch Kramer

Jason Piazza quoted in MJBiz article on HIGH TIMES - https://lnkd.in/gj2MiAXp “Because it’s IP-only now, we expect one offer, maybe two,†said Jason Piazza, director of real estate for WeCann, an Orange County, California-based firm that?handled the asset sale?of distributor Herbl after that?company’s 2023 collapse. Piazza told?MJBizDaily?that several WeCann clients made a move last year for High Times’ assets, but an overbid hearing and/or deal failed to materialize. “The clients we had last year who wanted the licenses aren’t interested in the IP,†he added.

Big news! Our client was awarded a retail license in Covina at last night’s city council meeting! Competing against some of the biggest names in the industry, they came out on top, and we’re proud to have been part of the journey. Congrats to the team! ?? Kate Popova and Mitch Kraemer from our licensing team did a STELLAR job, once again!
Last night the City Council of the City of Covina voted to award one of the three cannabis retail permits to Rilano Inc. We will now begin the process of our CUP Application and building out the store. It's been a long haul to get to this point. Henry Casillas, Jian Barazi, Bernardina Howard and I have been working toward this result for almost 4.5 years. Also thanks to our Board Member, John Brittain IV, CIC for your help and friendship. I am very proud of our team and this success. Congrats to Rilano Inc.

I’m curious, has anyone successfully had a client’s bid accepted in a cannabis receivership listing when not directly connected to the firm handling the process? Or do these opportunities tend to favor a specific pool of buyers? Each time I come across one of these listings, I consider engaging on the buy side, but after multiple attempts without success, I’m starting to question whether these bidding processes are truly open and competitive. If external buyers rarely, if ever, have their offers accepted, is the process genuinely structured to maximize value for debt holders, or is it primarily benefiting a select group? I know that for any receivership listings we handle, we actively co-operate with outside brokers to ensure broad market exposure. But I can’t say I’ve had the same experience with other firms managing these types of sales. Would love to hear insights from others who have navigated this space. Have you seen different outcomes??

?????????????? ?????? ?????????????? ??????????: ???????? ???????? ???? ????????????????! We are proud to announce that we successfully matched a well-known cannabis operator with a prime piece of land off the 15 Freeway in Wildomar! What makes this deal special isn’t just the outcome but also the trust and collaboration involved. A?major brokerage firm?entrusted us to find the perfect buyer for this highly specialized property, and we delivered by leveraging our?cannabis-specific databases and proprietary platforms. Within a few weeks, we identified the right operator to take on this?ground-up construction project. While cannabis deals are inherently complex—requiring cannabis CUPs, land entitlements, grading permits, and design work—our expertise and perseverance brought it all together. This transaction is a testament to our ability to?navigate the intricate landscape of cannabis real estate?and collaborate seamlessly with our partners. A big thank you to our co-brokers and the buyer for trusting us to get this done. If you’re looking to buy, sell, or develop in the cannabis sector, let’s connect. We have the tools and experience to handle even the most complicated deals. #justsold #cannabisretail #wecann #wildomarca
