The current owners of the property will probably turn it into a tourist attraction. It's already part amusement park, so I imagine the conversion costs shouldn't be that great. I give it a year before Neverland becomes a tourist attraction in Southern California.

People are going to start seeing Michael Jackson shadows in the windows and half white half black ghosts with their ghostly skin peeling from their flesh wearing black and red leather, their zippered teeth gleaming in the night as the sounds of children whimpering echo in the hallways moving around the collection of discarded pets, dusty life-sized dolls of children, and lawyers all showering him with confetti sized pills if you open up that place- or at the very least the bobble headed sort of 'tards who will spend half the night camped outside the gate just to get a glimpse or where he once had innocent sleep-overs humming show tunes, modelling surgical masks, and wishing he was Peter Frickin' Pan. We can have some of his former victims as tour guides who'll take you past the Nose Museum to where Joe Jackson shows off the five best ways to beat a child, showtimes between 1pm and 2pm. Next you'll be shuffled into a closet where there's bound to be some wardrobe malfunction and you'll find yourself in a room full of Michael's brothers doing whatever it is they've been doing since they stopped doing it with Michael. In the kitchen the Whackoland staff will introduce you to Michael's ex-wife Rowe who will sell you a commerative turkey baster. Children under the age of twelve whose parent allow them to stay overnight with a grown adult will be admitted for free and given veils. Child protective services will wait for these children to leave as their parents will have been arrested for child endangerment. Special appearances by his children will occur when they're older and able to sell their 'tell all' books while the memory of Michael lives on and he's blown into this fantastical pseudo Saint Theresa who was nothing but a troubled soul. Everyone can then gather on the front lawn at nightfall and weep and sob and hold each other in front of makeshift memorials and lament a man who up until his death was pretty much considered a nutjob.

May not be the Best thing to Happen to Neverland, but I see it as the most likely Scenario. We already have a model in Graceland and it is very profitable from What I understand. The media is showing us that those who never gave a Damn about him in Life are enjoying cashing in on His death. Once whoever owns Neverland realizes the Marketing potential I think we will be seeing a lot of Souvenier Tees.

Highly unlikely because the family doesn't own it I doubt that the family and the owners could come to a consensus on how to develop and market it as an attraction. To say nothing of the fact that the attraction would have a pretty limited and short term appeal.

The last thing the world needs is some sort of permanent tourist trap dedicated to the memory of this guy. What are they going to sell in the gift shop, single white gloves and fake rubber Skelator noses?

I don't know what the financial state of Neverland is but it seems that burying Jackson there and restoring it to good condition would be a cool way for fans to visit. There is a full fledged movie theater and people could tour his home as well. Maybe his family could reap the rewards to support his children
