A Common Situation for Missouri Residents

Missouri has long been known as the "Gateway to the West." For generations, families have passed through or settled in St. Louis, Kansas City, and communities across the Show-Me State. Many Missourians have family connections to Texas, Oklahoma, and other oil-producing states, with mineral rights that have passed through generations.

If you're a Missouri resident who inherited mineral rights in another state, you're not alone. Managing these assets from the heartland can be frustrating:

Confusing royalty statements you don't understand

Division orders and lease documents that need signatures

Operators you've never heard of sending mail

Small monthly checks that barely seem worth the hassle

Filing tax returns in multiple states

If any of this sounds familiar, you have options. Many Missouri residents choose to sell their out-of-state mineral rights for a lump sum, converting a confusing, distant asset into immediate cash.

Where Are Your Minerals Located?

We buy mineral rights in all major oil and gas producing states. Select your state for specific information:

Why Missouri Residents Sell Their Mineral Rights

Distance & Complexity

Remote management: Hard to manage an asset you've never seen

Unfamiliar operators: Don't know who's drilling or why

Complex paperwork: Division orders, lease amendments, title issues

Practical Simplification

Reduce complexity: Fewer assets to track and manage

Predictable income: Convert uncertain royalties to guaranteed cash

Simpler taxes: Eliminate multi-state tax filings

Estate Planning

Easier division: Cash divides more cleanly than fractional minerals

Avoid complications: Out-of-state assets complicate probate

Protect heirs: Don't burden children with distant assets

Financial Goals

Immediate cash: Fund home improvements, travel, medical expenses

Diversify: Move from single asset to diversified investments

Eliminate risk: No more worrying about production declines

Missouri: Gateway to the West

Missouri's historic role as the jumping-off point for westward expansion means many families have deep connections to Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and beyond. The Santa Fe Trail, Oregon Trail, and countless personal journeys began in Missouri, and family connections - including mineral rights - often remain.

Whether your ancestors moved through St. Louis on their way west and kept land in Oklahoma, or your family maintained ties to Texas ranches while building lives in Kansas City, mineral rights have a way of staying in families long after people move on. For Missouri residents managing minerals hundreds of miles away, selling offers a practical solution.

Questions We Hear from Missouri Residents

Check for royalty checks (even small ones), division orders, lease agreements, or correspondence from oil companies in your mail or among inherited documents. You can also search county records where family members owned property. If you inherited an estate, mineral rights may have been mentioned in the will or probate documents.
Often, yes. Even small royalty interests can have significant sale value because buyers consider future production potential, not just current payments. A $50/month royalty might sell for $10,000-$20,000 or more depending on the location and remaining reserves. We'll provide a free valuation so you know your options.
No. The entire transaction can be completed from Missouri. We send documents to you, you sign them before a local Missouri notary (UPS Store, bank, or mobile notary), and mail them back. We handle everything else, including recording the deed in the appropriate county.
Each heir can sell their individual interest independently. You don't need all heirs to agree. If you want to sell and others don't, you can sell just your share. We frequently work with families where some members sell and others keep their interest.
If you're receiving royalties, you may already be filing returns in that state. When you sell, you typically file a final return in that state for the sale year. After that, no more multi-state filings. You'll also report the sale on your federal and Missouri state returns. Consult a tax professional for your specific situation.
