$3000 / acre in the ellerbe rd area was told they would only be there 7 to 10 days so they needed an answer in that time frame or they were moving on. That was by petrohawk
I received a check from Red River Land today. My siblings and I own 75 acres in 4-19N-12W. It probably is not as much as some of you have received but a bird in the hand...........
Parker,
Yes, Red River is still leasing for Chesapeake, however the check was from Red River's account.
We received $7,000.00 per acre. We felt that when the price of natural gas and the economy took a dive that it was too much money to speculate with. It is a lot more than the $250.00 per acre we were initially offered. Also I was out voted by my siblings on whether or not to accept. This amount does not include any surface rights and 25% royalty. I wish all of you well in your negotiations. In the end everyone has to do what they are comfortable with.
OG - at least your family voted. I think it was Gosh Darn that posted an article about some man suing his family because he felt he had been blindsided by family. You may not have gotten top dollar, but you've got a family that works together.
