Why are leasing companies offering different amounts per acre to individual property owners in the same area?
Within the Little Green Ark area, residents have received dollar offers per acre that vary by as much as $1,750. That would seem to suggest that natural gas leasing companies are considering the surface value of a property when making an offer – and maybe they are. But that shouldn’t matter at all to them, considering what they are really interested in is below the surface. There should be no correlation between the value of a house on the property and the per acre value of the natural gas deposits below it. Assuming you fully own the mineral rights, your signing bonus will depend primarily on the size of your lot. This is an example of why unified neighborhood negotiations are the preferred option over individual settlements.
