MRP 324: Listener Questions March 2026

In this episode, we answer questions submitted by Greg, James, Greg, Sarah, George, Deborah, and Martha. From Drilled Un-Completed (DUC) wells that seem stalled to inheriting assets you don't fully understand, from IRS estate appraisals to updating an address on a deed, this episode highlights why the details always matter and why knowing the right next step can save you time, money, and stress. Whether you're dealing with one of these issues right now or just want to be prepared when you do, there's something in this episode for every mineral owner.

As before, many of the questions in this episode are covered in more depth in my Mineral Management Basics online course, including how to read a legal description, perform a title search, identify nearby oil and gas activity, and determine whether you should be getting paid on a well.

Thanks again to everyone who submitted a listener question! If you have a question about your minerals or royalties, you can send it to [e-mail]!
