I just recently signed 2 different leases at $2000 / acre. I'm not sure where they are in relation to yours but 1 in H.L. Wiggins survey A-763 with XTO and the other in George S. Hutto A-352 and G.S. Hutto A-348 with Devon.

And where (what are the nearest towns around these leases) are your two properties located? I wish that my sister and I could get a lease on our properties. Are they leasing other people around you?
How many acres are in the unit(s)?

Thanks Mike. I'll cross reference the surveys and make sure they're close enough to each other to use the comparison. Thanks again.

I was contacted by a landman two years ago and I didn't sign. This June I was contacted again by the same landman who offered 1000/acre, 3 yrs.,1/5. I turned it over to an attorney asking for 1/4 royalties and was ready to sign. Then last week I was contacted by another landman offering 3000/acre, 3yrs., 1/5. Should I accept the offer as is or hold out for 1/4 royalties. Thanks in advance for any advise.

"I turned it over to an attorney asking for 1/4 royalties"

Talk it over with your attorney... maybe you should ask for 3K AND 1/4 now that you have two bidders.

Thanks, as soon as I find another attorney, just found out mine has a conflict.
