Who Owns the Mineral Rights Under Your Land?
The mineral rights to a property can end up being a very liquid asset, as mineral rights can be detached from the land deed and put up for sale for interested parties. However, if you don’t actually own the mineral rights, the benefits of them will never come to fruition, no matter how appealing the thought of such monetary benefits may be. Tracking down who owns the rights to the minerals under a property can be a difficult but necessary task, as an unsuspecting landowner could be sitting on a large asset. At The Mineral Auction, our mineral rights specialists are dedicated to helping property owners sell their mineral rights and receive additional income.
How to find out whether you own your mineral rights
Before a landowner can sell mineral rights, they must first find out if they even have the rights to the minerals under their land. A property owner can go to the county clerk's office, usually located near the county courthouse, to find all subsequent land records for a property. From there, the property owner must create a chain of title, detailing the transfer of ownership of the mineral rights throughout time. Transfer of ownership, or conveyances, can then be used to construct a map to whom the legal owner of the mineral rights is.Gaps may appear in these records, causing much confusion as to where the ownership went. In these situations, it is important to examine divorce settlements, tax sales, mortgages, and foreclosure documents to try and decipher what happened. This research must be conducted thoroughly and correctly if mineral right ownership is to be legally proven. Fortunately, there are many services today that will assist a property owner in finding out who owns the rights to the minerals on their land.

The Mineral Auction provided me with an invaluable exit strategy when selling a mineral interest that one of my clients had. I’d recommend them to anyone who has the need to create some liquidity.
Blake is excellent. We have used him in numerous family issues and find him always direct and very helpful. He is incredibly informed and our go-to guy.
Blake and I have worked on several deals together and they have always gone off without a hitch. Both parties leave the table satisfied. Highly recommended!
Blake hit it out of the park! He did everything he said he would do, and then some. He far exceeded our expectations within a day! If you are concerned about paying commission or being restricted to a broker – don’t be. He will max out the value of your minerals. I tried to negotiate with several buyers on my own and didn’t come within the same universe.
Blake Bergstrom helped my family negotiate the sale of our mineral rights for our small ranch outside of San Antonio. I found Blake to be very knowledgable about whole process and took the time to answer all our questions. We were very satisified with the transaction and have already recommended Blake and The Mineral Auction to some our friends. Thanks again.
I have mineral rights to natural gas and Blake was excellent in his advice regarding my situation. Thanks a lot for your help!
