Cannabis real estate investment trust (REIT) Innovative Industrial Properties is launching a senior notes offering to raise an aggregate principal amount of $300 million.

Proceeds from the public notes offering by the Innovative Industrial Properties (IIP) operating partnership will be used “to invest in specialized industrial real estate assets used in the regulated cannabis industry” and for general corporate purposes, the company announced in a Tuesday news release.

The notes will mature in 2027, but a preliminary prospectus did not list the interest rate.

The debt will rank equally in right of payment with other IIP senior notes, including 3.75% senior notes due in 2024 and 5.5% senior notes due in 2026, the company said.
