I'VE BEEN APPROACHED TO LEASE BY ENERQUEST LAND SERVICES TO LEASE... SHOULD I LEASE??

I have never heard of Enerquest Land Services and don't believe it's an operating company but I was approached to lease my acreage in DeSoto for $750.00 an acre + 1/5 royalty for 2 years plus an extension of 3 years. Should I lease?? Any recommendation about what leases are going for these days and if I should accept the offer will be appreciated... Thanks.

Counter with  1/4 royalty see what happens but don't know if this is a good offer for your area. It could be due to down prices.
