The basics

What are mineral rights?

Mineral rights are ownership of the oil and gas under a piece of land. They can be owned separately from the land itself, so many people own minerals in a county they've never lived in. They are often passed down through a family.

We find owners through public county records, the same records anyone can look up at the county clerk's office.

Four steps

How a sale works

  1. You get our offer

    A letter with a specific cash price for your interest.

  2. You reply

    Call, text or email using the contact information in your letter. Say yes, ask questions, or tell us your price.

  3. We mail you a short deed

    You sign it in front of a notary. Your family is welcome to review it first.

  4. You get paid

    Usually within 14–21 days after we receive the signed deed.

Our promise

What you can count on

No fees

We pay all title work, recording and closing costs.

No pressure

Keep your minerals if you'd like. A "no thanks" is fine.

A real person

You talk directly with someone at SO Minerals, not a call center.

Questions

Common questions

Is this legitimate?

Yes. Buying and selling mineral rights is common in every oil and gas producing state. You can look up our company with the Texas Secretary of State, and check your ownership at the county clerk's office.

Do I have to sell?

No. Our offer is only an offer. You can keep your minerals, get other offers, or ask us for a different price.

Can I sell only part?

Yes. Tell us how much you'd like to keep and we'll adjust the offer.

What if other family members own part of it too?

Each owner decides for their own share. Have them call us and we'll make each person an offer.

Prefer we call you?

Leave your name and number and we'll call you, usually within one business day.
