Market read

Madison Heights commercial real estate context

Madison Heights is an industrial cannabis market rather than a retail one. The I-75 / Stephenson Highway corridor carries the deep-bay, heavy-power industrial stock that Class C cultivation and processing need, and the city raised its caps to 25 Class C growers in October 2023 to settle litigation over its original limits. That combination — genuine industrial inventory plus caps that were widened rather than tightened — makes it one of the few inner-ring Oakland County cities where a new cultivation or processing building is still a realistic acquisition rather than a licence purchase.
