    Overview

    Telluride Mining Claims with Waterfalls

    Comprising 5 patented mining claims totaling approximately 33 acres, this property, known as the Bear Creek Falls Property, includes 100% interest in the Wild Yankee Millsite claim, which contains Bear Creek Falls, and nearly 100% ownership in the four other mining claims that surround Bear Creek Falls: The Wild Yankee Lode (containing the Upper Falls), The Silver Chief Millsite, The Silver Chief Lode, and the Excelsior Lode. Located just two miles from downtown Telluride, the property is an inholding within US Forest Service Lands and is adjacent to the Town's Bear Creek Preserve. The Bear Creek Falls Property is the destination at the end of the Bear Creek Falls Trail, which is ranked #2 on Trip Advisor for "Things to do in Telluride" with an estimated 200,000 permissive use visitors annually. A user fee model could potentially be imposed, and with improvements such as a viewing platform, stairs to the upper falls, etc., the revenue estimates are significant. Conversely, if this property was acquired and brought back into the public domain there would likely be significant tax credits available. The property is a part of Telluride’s identity as an outdoor destination.

    Realmo Value Estimation

    Realmo estimates a property’s market value using a proprietary methodology that incorporates public data and user-submitted information. This cumulative value is generated by integrating a variety of conventional and innovative methods. 

    Disclaimer

    These figures are not official appraisals and should not be used as a substitute for a valuation performed by a licensed appraiser.

    Actual market value may differ due to factors not captured in the data. Estimates are offered for informational purposes only, and users should conduct independent research before making financial or investment decisions.

    By using this feature, you acknowledge that Realmo is not responsible for actions taken based on these estimates.

    AI approach

    Realmo AI Method estimates property value using machine learning models trained on millions of comparable listings, transactions, and market signals. It analyzes property features, location intelligence data, and current market dynamics to predict the most probable market value in real time.

    Cap approach

    Capitalization Method calculates value based on estimated net operating income (NOI) and applying a market-based capitalization rate (cap rate), we estimate what a typical investor might be willing to pay for it.

    Comparable approach

    Comparable estimate is based on recent sales of similar nearby properties, adjusted for factors like size, condition, and location.

    Relative

    Relative property class coefficient uses factors that account for typical price differences between various asset types (e.g., retail vs. industrial) to provide a more accurate market-aligned estimate.

    Geo

    Comparable Sales Method, enhanced by Geo coefficients — location-based adjustment factors that reflect differences in price levels across neighborhoods, cities, or regions ensuring a more accurate, market-sensitive valuation.

    Alternative use

    Estimate considers the property’s potential value if used for a different purpose-based on zoning, demand, and market feasibility.
