This property is no longer available as it has been sold. This is a beautiful 5 acre parcel close to Burns Junction. It overlooks the historic Tudor Ranch (which more or less surrounds the property) and (despite the name) the oasis of Bone Creek. Breathtaking views of Steens Mountain in an excellent birding area!

What’s the legal description?

33S 39E WM section 13 tax lot 600.

How much are property taxes?

~$5.50.

Is there power to the property?

No.

What about roads to the property? How can I access the property?

The property is less than a mile (0.8 of a mile to be exact) west of I-95. It’s also just a tenth of a mile south of Tudor Road, which is paved.

Please note that this property is surrounded by private property, so there may not be legal access or easements. However, in Oregon, it is our understanding that unless the property is marked No Trespassing, it is typically okay to access. You may also be able to work out an arrangement with the surrounding landowner.

How do I get there and how long?

It’s about 4 hours from Bend, Oregon. Or 2 1/2 from Boise.

Is it accessible all year?

Yes.

What’s the elevation?

It’s Oregon’s beautiful high desert! 3,980 feet above sea level.

Can I build?

You’d need a conditional use permit (CUP) from Malheur County. One thing to remember is that this is a relatively conservative and rural county by Oregon standards: therefore, it’s my understanding that such permits are typically granted, particularly in the Christmas Valley area. Once a permit is granted,  you’re allowed to dig a well, etc. I should note that you can park your RV here and live part time out of the year; as far as I know, there are no regulations against that. Oh, and pretty sure you can build small support structures without permits, too.

How much is this property?

$2,000

How do I buy the property?

Just contact me below! Typically we exchange a cashier’s check for a notarized quit claim deed which you can then file with the county. If you’d like title insurance & escrow, that’s fine, but it’s up to you to cover these fees (using AmeriTitle it is $450 for the escrow account, $100-200 for title insurance, and roughly $50 for filing). We feel that these fees are pretty expensive for a smaller deal, but, again, it’s up to you if you want them. Contact me below for more details.

Any owner financing or terms?

We’d prefer to deal in cash to reduce the complexity of contract preparation, making sure that payments come in, and interest rate computation. However, since we get a lot of questions about this, we’re exploring how to setup reasonable owner financing for purchasers who don’t have all of the money right away. Contact me for details.
