Quick answer — How do I sell my mineral rights in Tennessee?
As of 2026-09-04, 27 operators are materially active across 7 Tennessee counties — from state regulator well records compiled by Buckhead Energy.
Tennessee production is small-scale and conventional — which means fewer buyers send letters, and comparing written offers matters more when you get one.
Many Tennessee minerals ride with timberland and family farms across generations; we buy fractional interests and help complete title at closing.
A free written offer costs nothing and tells you what the market actually says your interest is worth.
Research your operator and county through our operator directory.
Direct buyer — our own capital, no broker commissions, you keep 100% of the offer.
Track record — buying since 2006, A+ BBB rating, 1,000+ completed acquisitions.
Written, no-pressure offers — take the time you need, compare us against anyone.
We pay closing costs — title work handled and paid, funding in 30–45 days.

Three steps: tell us about your Tennessee 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.
Producing and non-producing mineral rights, royalty interests (including NPRIs and ORRIs), and fractional or undivided interests anywhere in Tennessee. Inherited interests are welcome — we can help complete transfer paperwork as part of closing.
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.
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.
The company named on your royalty check stub is your payor — usually the well operator. The largest Tennessee payors by wells operated are Enrema LLC, Diversified Production LLC, and Fee. A royalty check from any Tennessee payor is proof of a producing, sellable interest — Buckhead Energy buys mineral and royalty interests under every operator in the state.
Two minutes to start. A written offer to consider — no cost, no obligation, no pressure.
