INCC Has Received An Institutional Commitment For Marijuana Based Real Estate Debt Financing

DENVER, Feb. 9, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- INCC, Can Cannabis Company Get a Bank Loan?

The problem: Banks are calling loans. While it is lawful under the laws of 28 states to grow and distribute medical marijuana, it is illegal under federal law. Banks, which are mostly federally regulated, are sending letters to landlords requiring them to either remove their marijuana business tenant or have their note called forcing them to refinance or pay off the note.

The solution: International Consolidated Companies, Inc., (OTC:INCC), through its real estate division, headed by Mr. Arnold "Avi" Yoskowitz, has received an institutional commitment for marijuana based real estate debt financing subject to underwriting.

The plan: To create a portfolio of real estate holdings to service the cannabis industry and to help other cannabis companies refinance their loans.

INCC intends to raise up to $100 million in equity to secure financing commitments up to $200 million.
