The answer

It is forbidden to sell real estate to a commercial bank for it to establish a branch therein, as this constitutes cooperation in sin and aggression. This is similar to selling real estate to someone who will use it as a place for gambling. Selling a house to someone who will use it as a location for a branch of an interest-based bank is prohibited, by analogy to the prohibition of selling wood to someone who will make a cross from it, and grapes to someone who will press them into wine.
