Emily and Eric really did a good job guiding us through the process to sell our mineral rights.
They found a buyer quickly, and even though our records were old and scattered, taking longer than usual to document things, they patiently worked with us to complete the sale. They are the best. Ken Flake.

Texas Royalty Brokers helped me and my family navigate some tricky inherited minerals. I had great peace of mind using them versus dealing directly with a buyer. Very satisfied experience.

Texas Royalty Brokers was very helpful to me in evaluating the mineral rights owned by the estate of an old man for whom I am the executor, even though they probably knew very quickly I would not end up as a client.
Stephens, TX
I had the pleasure of working with Texas Royalty Brokers LLC this past month. From the beginning to the very end and everything in between, they were very communicative, responsive and helpful. They explained every part of the process and helped when I needed something. They made the whole process simple and easy. By using Texas Royalty Brokers LLC, I was able to get 2 times the amount I was offered by others or on my own.

Eric and Emily are very good at taking care of clients. I found them after researching companies to help me with selling. The reviews I found convinced me to give them an opportunity and I am thankful.
Emily was true to her word from the beginning to the completion. I am so pleased with her that if I choose to sell other property, I will definitely contact her and trust her judgement in my accounts.

Lea County, New Mexico – 480 Net Mineral Acres
This offering represents a rare opportunity to acquire a large, unleased mineral position in Lea County, New Mexico, one of the most active oil and gas regions in the Permian Basin. The ownership totals 480 net mineral acres with a 1.0 net decimal interest, providing significant scale and leasing leverage in a highly competitive county.
The acreage was last leased in 2016 at $250 per net mineral acre and an 18.75% royalty, and it is currently open and unleased, giving the buyer full control to negotiate new lease terms in today’s market. We believe the seller owns 480 NMA, with 320 NMA in Section 17 and 160 NMA in Section 20. With continued operator activity across Lea County and sustained interest in undeveloped mineral positions, this tract offers strong upside tied to future leasing and development.
Large, contiguous unleased mineral packages of this size are increasingly difficult to assemble. This listing provides immediate optionality: hold for appreciation, lease into active development, or package for future resale. For investors seeking scale, flexibility, and exposure to one of the most proven basins in the region, this is a compelling acquisition opportunity.
For this listing, we are requiring the following:
-
- Special Warranty Deed
- 30 Day Close
- Any adjustment to the purchase price greater than 10% must be mutually agreeable.
- Our closing process included in the PSA, which is: At closing, buyer will provide the mineral deed. The seller will execute the mineral deed and return it to Texas Royalty Brokers. Texas Royalty Brokers will provide buyer with a scanned copy of the deed, and buyer will then wire funds to seller and Texas Royalty Brokers respectively. Once funds are confirmed, Texas Royalty Brokers will overnight the deed to the Buyer.
- Buyer must close within 14 days or sign our qualified buyer agreement.
