Post your description here.

You can reserve your mineral rights when selling your home. It would be a good idea to do so whether or not your property is situated near current/future Haynesville Shale leasing.

This may scare off some buyers.

Do you mean that reserving mineral rights may scare off some buyers? On a residential area lot and house? Or on a larger tract?

Recall the question coming up about reserving minerals and how that affected rural land prices but I'm not sure it actually was proven either way.

It's a good topic for more information/ discussion, I think.

Many people have the impression that they will get rich of their town lots mineral rights. I am just saying that some buyers may not want to buy a home without the minerals.

On a larger tract, it would definitly be somthing to negotiate.
