I believe if Real Estate is viewed as a career like Engineering or Medicine and not a hobby or a get rich quick, people would take the time to be educated and research as they would if they were going to take on a career in Engineering or Medicine.

It used to be really something in the late 1800s with a medicine factory, a glass factory, and as a  transportation center for the surrounding farms.

You can do that and pay the agent that brings you a buyer whatever their fee is.Or, you can place a sign out front and have unknown people walking through your house at odd times looking in your underware drawer and medicine cabinets.

wink wink, if its in a grocery anchored center retail medicine would be a great alternate use.and I assume you are looking at a free standing single tenant building, especially if its a QSR....just very surprised there isn't some kind of a ground lease at play here, given the situation.

Most of the homes have crutches, and medicines from the prior owner.

And as such, gets to expect to have the home to live in, without being invaded.And, imagine what it would be like to have a horde of complete strangers (and in SF right now, any open house will be a mass infusion of strangers) walking through your home, perhaps looking in your closets, your jewelry box, you medicine cabinets, checking out your stereo, your televisions, your computers....As an owner, do you really want that liability? 

As far as I know, a landlord can still say no to marijuana uses, whether it's medicinal or not - because it violates federal law.
