Selling Louisiana Minerals: What's Different Here

Haynesville activity moves with natural-gas prices, so offers for northwest Louisiana minerals vary more than most — get every offer in writing and compare before deciding.

Louisiana's civil-law system handles minerals differently than other states (mineral servitudes can prescribe after ten years of non-use) — a real buyer will address exactly what you own, not gloss over it.

We buy producing and non-producing Louisiana interests, including inherited fractional shares, and pay all title and closing costs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I sell my mineral rights in Louisiana?

Three steps: tell us about your Louisiana property (county and, if producing, a recent royalty statement help), we research the wells and activity around it and send a free written offer — typically within 24–48 hours — and if you accept, Buckhead pays the title and closing costs (title research, curative, document preparation, and recording). A seller's own taxes, or advisors the seller separately retains, are not part of Buckhead's closing costs. Closings typically take 30–45 days, subject to title review and clearance.

What do you buy in Louisiana?

Producing and non-producing mineral rights, royalty interests (including NPRIs and ORRIs), and fractional or undivided interests anywhere in Louisiana. Inherited interests are welcome — we can help complete transfer paperwork as part of closing.

Is there any cost or obligation?

No. Buckhead provides a free written offer. Our offer comes at no cost and no obligation. Because Buckhead is the buyer (not a broker or intermediary), there is no broker commission taken out of your sale. Buckhead pays the title and closing costs (title research, curative, document preparation, and recording). A seller's own taxes, or advisors the seller separately retains, are not part of Buckhead's closing costs.

How do I know an offer for my Louisiana minerals is fair?

Compare at least two written offers, and ask each buyer to explain how it valued your interest — production history, decline, operator activity, and your decimal interest should all figure in. Our guide to fair pricing walks through each factor.

Who pays oil & gas royalties in Louisiana?

The company named on your royalty check stub is your payor — usually the well operator. The largest Louisiana payors by wells operated are Texaco, Chevron, and Enervest Operating. A royalty check from any Louisiana payor is proof of a producing, sellable interest — Buckhead Energy buys mineral and royalty interests under every operator in the state.
