Karen, my husband passed away almost 5 years ago and I am still dealing with probate issues here in WV (could be some of the reasons the state is listed as 3rd on the "LITIGATION HELLHOLE LIST") I agree that you definitely want to resolve these issues without that if you can. It sounds as if you've done some "shopping" and have improved your position from your earlier "offers". When they get to the magic number for you, let it go and be content. All long distance relationships are stressful and difficult.
Wishing you and yours Happy Holidays and a prosperous Shale-ing New Year for us all.
Sincerely, Todd's mom, Kit
I don't know your situation but, will the mineral rights not be passed along to you when your mother passes ?
Too much work. I have lost all patience with this. I have 27 of these, maybe more, to get dealt with, before Mom passes, or I do probate in WV. I'm trying to avoid that.
That's a little better. Have you thought about going ahead and leasing and then selling.
No, it's more than 5 times that. It's double the best offer I got.
Is this offer double the unsolicited offer of $350 per acre ?
Gasaholic, I am out of time & energy to deal with this. It's one of over 27 oil rights I am dealing with, long distance. I did negotiate with another buyer, but the attorney got double their top offer.
Karen, if you must sell, there are many companies that you can contact yourself for offers.
Gasaholic, I am selling them outright. I'm in California, and it belongs to my 87 year old mom, who is not in good health. I also have a bunch of "unclaimed property" that is mineral rights in Marion, Wetzel and Bartholimew Counties. GreatGrandpa was quite the speculator!

AboutWhat makes this site so great? Well, I think it's the fact that, quite frankly, we all have a lot at stake in this thing they call shale. But beyond that, this site is made up of individuals who have worked hard for that little yard we call home. Or, that farm on which blood, sweat and tears have fallen. [ Read More ] |
