Do not sign or return anything right away. First, confirm exactly what you own — your net mineral acres, royalty decimal, and which wells or units are involved. Second, verify the buyer: check whether they are a direct buyer or a broker who intends to flip the deal, and read the purchase agreement for the effective date and any deductions. Third, get at least one competing written offer so you have something to measure the first one against. Unsolicited offers on Hansford County, Texas minerals are often opening bids rather than best-and-final, and a second valuation from American Royalty Buyers is free and carries no obligation to sell.

ARB is a direct buyer: no broker, and no fees or commissions at any point.
If you own mineral rights or royalties in Hansford County, Texas, choosing the right buyer matters as much as the price. The same buyer-selection principles apply here as across Texas:
If you have searched for a Texas mineral rights broker, it helps to know that the party on the other end of a sale is one of three kinds, and they do not work the same way. A direct buyer like American Royalty Buyers purchases your Texas interest with its own capital and takes title — one written offer, one closing, and no commission. A broker does not buy your minerals; they list and shop your interest to third-party buyers and take a commission out of the proceeds, so your net is reduced by that fee and your closing depends on someone else agreeing to buy. A marketplace or matching service collects bids from a pool of buyers, which sounds like more competition but introduces a spread — the platform and each bidder both need a margin. Knowing which one you are dealing with is the first step to a fair deal on Texas minerals.
Telling a direct buyer from a broker is simple once you know what to ask. Whose capital funds the purchase? A direct buyer wires you its own money; a broker is arranging someone else's. Does a commission or fee come out of your proceeds? A direct buyer's offer is exactly what you receive; a broker's fee is deducted from your sale. Does the purchase and sale agreement assign your interest to a third party? An assignment clause is the tell that the counterparty intends to flip the deal rather than hold it. Ask those three questions and read the agreement — the answers separate a principal buyer from an intermediary.
American Royalty Buyers is a direct buyer, not a broker. ARB is a Fort Worth, Texas company that purchases mineral rights, royalties, NPRI, ORRI, and non-operated working interests with its own capital and holds them — across Texas and specializing in the Permian Basin. There is no broker, no middleman, and no commission: the written offer ARB delivers is exactly what you receive, and ARB handles the title research, curative work, and closing at no cost to you. For a Texas owner who wants a fair, transparent sale without a fee coming out of the proceeds, a direct buyer removes a layer of cost and uncertainty that a broker adds.
When does a broker genuinely make sense? Mainly for a very large or complex package an owner wants shopped to many competing buyers at once, where the added competition might outweigh the commission — though even then, a direct buyer's offer is a useful benchmark to measure the broker's results against. For most Texas owners, the practical move is to get a free, written valuation from a direct buyer first, so any brokered or mailed offer has something honest to be measured against. ARB's valuation is free, carries no obligation, and comes with the reasoning explained. See also direct buyer vs. broker and selling without a broker.
Inherited minerals in Hansford County follow Texas's probate and title rules:
If you have inherited mineral rights in Texas, the first task is establishing clear title in your name. Minerals that passed under a will generally move through Texas probate — and when the person who died lived in another state, an ancillary probate in Texas (or recording an authenticated copy of the out-of-state will and order) is usually required to transfer the Texas minerals specifically. Texas also recognizes a transfer-on-death deed (Texas Estates Code ch. 114), which passes minerals directly to a named beneficiary outside probate when one was recorded before death — though some operators suspend royalties on a TOD deed and prefer a lady-bird (enhanced life estate) deed, so check how the interest was conveyed. Transferring inherited mineral rights and selling mineral rights from an estate walk through the steps.
Inherited minerals receive a stepped-up cost basis — their fair market value on the date of the previous owner's death, not what that owner originally paid — so if you sell, capital gains are measured against the stepped-up value and a sale shortly after inheriting often carries little or no taxable gain. The stepped-up basis on inherited minerals explains it, and a tax professional can confirm your situation. Texas imposes no state estate or inheritance tax. One Texas wrinkle: because Texas is a community-property state, minerals acquired during a marriage are presumptively community property, so on a spouse's death only the decedent's one-half passes by will or intestacy while the surviving spouse keeps their own half.
Inherited Texas minerals are frequently small, fractional, undivided interests, because a single tract is often split among several heirs across generations, making decimals tiny and title complex. A Texas mineral estate does not lapse for non-use — there is no dormant-minerals act — so even a long-dormant inherited interest remains yours to claim; the work is confirming and recording your ownership so you can lease or sell it, often with an affidavit of heirship where a full probate was never done. The complete guide to inherited mineral rights covers what to gather and check.
