Irrigated and fenced, 5 acres on Hwy 126, full McKenzie River frontage, smooth and flat. There is a 1960’s vintage house, which is not in the floodplain.
The LIFE ESTATE means that the current owner (the “seller”) would get to live on the property until she dies or must move out for health reasons. She’s in her mid-80’s right now. She would not currently allow the new owner (you, the “buyer”) to bring on livestock of any kind. The buyer (new owner) would be obliged to pay property taxes ($3,000); insurance ($1200); and any major upkeep. The seller (occupant) would pay utilities.
I am the trustee for the land-owner. The parcel is upstream from Lane Creek, downstream from Deerhorn County Park; exact location will be provided to serious candidates.
You must demonstrate ability to get financing or to pay cash, and be willing to work through the establishment of the life estate.
