When I bought my property I got 1/2 of the mineral rights that the seller had on the lot I bought. He received money for royalties on these lots, he told me that, but I never received any payment for my part. This has been several years ago and he has since died. How do I find out if I have money coming?
Hi, Marvin -
You may have needed to inform the company that you had purchased 1/2 of the mineral rights all those years ago. If you didn’t, then they might not know of your existence. They may have been paying the other guy 100% all these years.
What is the legal description of the property? I can at least look the Well(s) for you and let you know who to call.
Can you scan in and send me a copy of your Deed?
Hope this helps -
The property is, "Harlen/Hensley Addition, Southmayd, Texas, Grayson County lot #5 6.475 acres. To my knowledge there is no wells, I’m assuming he sold the mineral rights?
