How it works
A simple, no-pressure way to understand your mineral rights
We built this process for people who feel unsure, especially those who inherited mineral rights and are not sure where to begin. Here is exactly how it works, with nothing hidden.
Step 1: You answer a few short questions
The process starts with a short form. It asks where your minerals are located, roughly how much you own, whether you are receiving royalty checks, and how best to reach you. It takes about two minutes. You do not need any documents to begin, and if you are unsure of a detail, you can leave it blank. We would rather you start than get stuck.
We ask for the state and county because location is the single biggest driver of mineral value. A few acres in an active area can be worth more than a large position somewhere quiet. The other questions help us understand whether your interest is producing income today or holds value for the future.
Step 2: We review your details against current activity
Once we have your information, we look at it in the context of what is actually happening in your area. That means considering the basins and counties involved, whether operators are drilling nearby, your approximate acreage and royalty status, and current oil and gas market conditions. The goal is a realistic picture, not a sales pitch.
If anything is unclear, such as exactly what you own or whether your title has been cleared, we will tell you plainly and point you toward the right next step. Sometimes that step is simply confirming ownership through probate before anything else can happen, and that is completely normal.
Step 3: You get a clear, honest estimate
We give you a no-pressure estimate of what your interest may be worth, along with plain-English context so the number actually means something to you. We explain what is driving the value, what could change it, and what your realistic options are. You are never rushed, and you are never obligated to do anything.
Many people use this purely to understand what they have. Some have held minerals for years without knowing their value. Others just inherited rights and want to get oriented. Whatever your situation, understanding your value is useful on its own, whether or not you ever decide to sell.
Step 4: You decide, on your own timeline
After you have a clear picture, the decision is entirely yours. You might decide to keep your minerals and simply enjoy knowing what they are worth. You might want to explore selling, in which case we can connect you with reputable buyers from our network if you choose. Or you might do nothing for now, which is perfectly fine. Minerals do not expire, and there is no deadline here.
What we do with your information
We treat your details with care. We use them to prepare your estimate and to contact you the way you asked. We never sell your information to random third parties. If you decide you want to explore selling, we may connect you with a vetted buyer or professional, and only then. You can read the full details in our privacy policy.
Why there is no hard sell
This niche has a reputation problem. Too many sites pose as neutral while really pushing owners to sell fast and cheap. We took the opposite approach on purpose. We are not a buyer, so we have no reason to pressure you. Our reputation depends on giving you honest information, even when that means you decide to keep your minerals. You can read exactly how we stay in business on our how we make money page.
Who this is for
This is for anyone who owns or recently inherited mineral or royalty rights and wants to understand them without being pushed. You do not need to be an expert. You do not need to live near your minerals. You do not even need all your paperwork to get started. You just need a couple of minutes and a willingness to learn what you have.
