Mineral rights and investment proprety
Hello,
I am in the process of purchasing a 4plex in Midland, TX. It is on a small residential lot. The sellers want to keep the mineral rights. I am wondering if it is worth the battle to try and keep them and potentially lose the deal or just let the sellers have them? I can't imagine a tiny residential lot's mineral rights are going to be worth much in the overall scheme of things. Thoughts?
Thank you!
Adam

Unless they want to dig up the whole property looking for minerals , what could go wrong ?
