Hello Sarah,

Joe ask for me to reply. Called Cheaspeak.com was told a women named Tiffany Roads is the agent in our area. Left a voice me for her but no return call. They must not be active in Allegheny county? They seen not to have an interest.

Do you know if they are even coming in our direction?

Thank you,

Hi Sarah, thanks for the reply. I live in the Prospect area and would appreciate the number of the attorney

Sarah, Yes, my attorney mentioned the change in the royalty being a possibility. I just hope the Gas companies dont get to "grandfather" our lower rates. More regulations really need to be passed to protect us! Sorry to hear your situation is like ours - with no real options.  We had gotten our hopes up for a new lease when they ran into title issues on the property where the proposed well will be. But it didnt work out. I guess I have to try to think positive at this point....we figured they would find a way and we would be locked in before we expired. Our situation is like being locked in, but at least we get a bonus for it. Hope you are getting a decent top lease bonus.

Now we will just hope these new royalty changes are made law and even the old leases have to comply with it.

Hello Sarah,

my wife has done alot of reseasrch and contacted serveral companies Chesapeake ,Range resources and Philips stating they are land leasing. We have submitted all online contact information and no one has returned a call or email. I take that as they are no interested or they are not in our area as of yet

Good question Sarah...nobody has ever asked for an alleghany group! Would you be interested in moderating one?
At 4:28pm on December 7, 2010, Keith Schwartz said…
Sarah,

Typically, after a lease has been signed, the title for the property is researched, it is reviewed by an attorney, and an opinion is written. If anything needs to be done at that point, it is considered to be curative.

I am mainly working towards the south.

Keith
