Required documents to list mineral rights
At US Mineral Exchange our goal is simple. We want to help you sell mineral rights for the best price available. The key to selling mineral rights for the best price is preparation. While the documentation that we require to list can sometimes take a bit of time to gather it is extremely important.
Imagine you are selling your home. If you were to post the city and state, but you did not provide the specific address or any pictures would you expect to attract much attention from buyers? This is exactly what many mineral owners do. Taking the time to gather the required documentation below is critical to ensuring the highest market price.
Taking the offer in hand
One of the most common mistakes we see mineral owners make is quickly accepting an offer in hand. We realize that gathering up the documentation to list is an extra hurdle to jump through. It will be worth your time!
We consistently help mineral owners sell mineral rights for the highest market value possible. It will always be easier to just accept the offer you currently have in hand. However, you will be leaving thousands of dollars on the table that you could have made by working with US Mineral Exchange.
Required documents
Below are the documents that US Mineral Exchange requires to list. The type of documents we need depends upon the status of your property. Here are the documents we require depending upon the status:
If you receive royalty income:
If your property is leased, but you do NOT receive royalty income:
Non-Leased and Non-Producing:
Important note: In general, we do not list non-leased / non-producing properties at US Mineral Exchange. Typically the value of non-leased / non-producing acreage is not significant. We do make rare exceptions for clients who own minerals that are not producing, but are either currently leased, have a very recent lease offer, or for clients who have offers in excess of $50,000. Please contact us if you are unsure about what the potential value might be and we can point you in the right direction.
