The son of two of the Wieambilla police killers says the new owners of the property are open to maintaining a memorial on the property.

Mr Train says the new owners have asked him to pass on that they will be respectful of the property and lives lost on it.

The son of two of the Wieambilla police killers says the new owners of the property where two officers and a neighbour were shot dead are open to maintaining a memorial on the site.

Aidan Train has spoken exclusively to the ABC, in the wake of the slain police officers' families describing the sale of the property as "an insult".

Mr Train, the son of conspiracy theorists Nathaniel and Stacey Train and nephew of Gareth Train, became the legal owner of the property at Wieambilla, 300 kilometres west of Brisbane, after the December 2022 killings.

"They [the new owners] indicated to me that they didn't seek to do anything controversial with the property and that they were open to a consultative approach to hosting a memorial there," Mr Train said about the sale to the buyers who wanted to remain anonymous.

Constables Rachel McCrow and Matthew Arnold and neighbour Alan Dare were murdered by Gareth, Nathaniel and Stacey Train at the property while police were responding to a missing persons report.

In the aftermath of the shootings, the three Trains were killed in a shootout with tactical police.

A small memorial to Mr Dare, built by his widow Kerry and family, remains at the property gate, near where he was killed that day when he went to investigate.

Mr Train said the new owners told him they were "very happy" for the tribute to remain.

He said in the years since the murders, he had been unable to properly maintain the property.

Mr Train said there had been trespassing and looting, water tanks had been stolen from the property and there was evidence of methamphetamine use at the property in recent years.

"That property has been treated by people from outside of the community or some people from within the community with complete disdain and looting and that sort of thing has been rampant," he said.

"I've been advised that, when the new buyer was cleaning things up, there was evidence of ice usage that wasn't there when police were doing their searches of the property.
