Frequently Asked Questions

Can you help me decide if holding my rights is better?

Yes. Our goal is to provide a balanced view so that you understand the pros and cons of each option—holding, leasing, managing more efficiently, or selling—without bias.

Our evaluations are not only thorough but are explained in clear, everyday language. We want you to understand exactly how we arrived at your mineral rights’ value.

Absolutely not. We provide the information, analysis, and support you need, and the decision is entirely yours.

We emphasize discovery and transparency. Our process involves listening to your goals, asking questions to understand your needs, and guiding you without pressure. We believe in finding win-win outcomes rather than pursuing quick transactions.
