Sell Mineral Rights in Balmorhea, TX

Most people know Balmorhea for the spring-fed swimming pool, but the ground around it sits within reach of some of Reeves County's most active drilling.

Balmorhea is small, a few hundred residents at most, and it's easy to assume the mineral acreage around it doesn't matter much in the broader Delaware Basin story. That's not quite right. Reeves County as a whole has been one of the busiest counties for horizontal permitting in Texas, and acreage on the southern end of the county, including around Balmorhea, has seen its share of that activity, though generally less densely than the core near Pecos and Orla.

Southern Reeves County positioning

Balmorhea sits toward the edge of Reeves County's most heavily drilled acreage rather than dead center in it, which means we weigh current production data more heavily than speculative future drilling when we value an interest here, compared to how we'd approach acreage closer to the county's core.

What we need from you

A division order or recent royalty check stub is the fastest way to a real number. If your acreage hasn't produced yet, tell us the section and block and we'll check permitting activity for that specific area rather than assuming based on the town's location alone.

Small-town ownership, real value

A lot of ownership around Balmorhea traces to long-held family land, often split among heirs who've moved away over the years. The town being small doesn't mean the interest is small. We've bought interests here that surprised the owner once we showed them the actual production numbers behind their check.

How we actually build the offer

We pull the well or wells tied to your specific unit from Texas Railroad Commission records, look at where each sits on its decline curve, and check what's permitted nearby before we settle on a range. That process takes us a day or two once we have your division order, not weeks of back and forth.

Begin with the county record trail

A royalty review in each state starts with the recording office, legal description, deed chain, reservations, lease, units, division orders, payor records, statements, and regulatory well data.

Route local legal and tax questions correctly

Probate, marital property, dormant-mineral law, pooling, recording, transfer tax, regulatory filings, and payor-notice rules can differ from state to state. Those questions belong with qualified advisers.

Read the local tract against the Permian schedule

In every state, the royalty run sheet keeps the tract separate from broad county averages. The review pairs the legal description with producing wells, product lines, paid decimals, deductions, check history, decline, nearby permits, offset completions, operator changes, title exceptions, retained depths, and the exact property schedule in the written offer. Observed payments and recorded interests stay distinct from possible future locations, marketing claims, and assumptions that still need dated support.
