Sell Mineral Rights in Midland, TX

Everybody in Midland has an opinion about what oil and gas is worth right now. Ours is based on your division order, not the price of crude on the news.

Midland is the headquarters city for the basin that bears its name, which means plenty of people here understand the oil business from the operator's side, the office side, the landman's side. What a lot of individual mineral owners don't have is the time or the interest to track their own fractional interest through every lease amendment and pooling order.

If you inherited minerals from a family that ranched around Midland before the city grew up around them, or you picked up an interest as part of an estate settlement, we'll verify exactly what you own against county records and give you a number based on what your acreage is actually doing.

Stacked pay, real complexity

Midland sits over the thickest, most heavily drilled part of the Spraberry-Wolfcamp trend, which is good news for value but bad news for simplicity. Multiple operators may have interests in overlapping benches under the same surface acreage, and your royalty could be tied to one horizontal unit today and a different one entirely two years from now as development moves through the section.

What we look at before we make an offer

We pull your deed and division order history from the Midland County courthouse, check recent permitting in your section, and compare your royalty statements if you have them. That's how we land on a number instead of a generic county-wide guess.

You don't need to be an oilman to sell smart

You don't have to understand net revenue interest calculations or spacing unit math before you talk to us. We explain what we find in plain terms, tell you what's driving the number, and let you decide without pressure.

Open the county file first

The review should identify the county clerk record, legal description, deed chain, reservations, lease, assignments, probate or trust records, unit documents, division orders, payor records, and recent statements that belong to the same tract. City names and surface addresses are useful search clues, but the recorded description controls the mineral schedule.

Match local drilling to the subject tract

Permits, completions, operator acreage, nearby laterals, unit boundaries, field rules, product mix, and basin activity in the surrounding county can supply context. The review should keep offset activity separate from wells and units that actually include the owner's acreage, because a nearby rig is not proof of present ownership or future development.

Compare the complete written offer

A local offer should be read beside the net mineral acres, paid decimal, producing status, depths, products, effective date, included receivables, title standard, curative obligations, permitted deductions, price adjustments, deed language, reservations, payment timing, and closing deadline. A headline price without that schedule is incomplete.

Route Texas-specific questions

Heirship, community property, probate, trust authority, dormant interests, executive rights, pooling, allocation, depth severances, lease interpretation, title defects, tax treatment, and recording procedure can change the sale route for a county tract. Those issues belong with qualified legal, tax, title, engineering, or appraisal professionals before the owner relies on a closing number.
