Marcellus
Landowner Groups

There are a number of Marcellus landowner groups that mineral owners can join. A landowner group can provide mineral owners with resources to better understand what is going on in their area. Many landowner groups will combine their land so that when they are approached to lease, all members of the group can work together to get the highest lease amount possible.

While this can sometimes work, it’s important to note that many landowner groups are not industry professionals and they do not have the tools and information necessary to properly evaluate offers. We highly recommend seeking professional advice in addition to joining a landowner group so that you get the benefits from both parties. In addition, not all landowner groups are created equally. Carefully determine what the landowner group is doing to market properties, who the individuals in leadership positions are, and how the group could be a benefit to you.

Important Questions to Ask Before Joining:

Below are some important questions that you should ask any landowner group before you join. The answers to these questions will help you determine if the landowner group is currently active and looking out for your best interests.

  • When was the last time a landowner in your group secured a lease?
  • What is the background of the leaders in the group?
  • How often are meetings held or updates sent out to the group?
  • How many members are currently in the group? How many are actually active?
  • What is the main benefit that the landowner group can provide the mineral owner?

A landowner group should be able to answer all of these questions and show that they are an active group with a desire to benefit landowners. If you have questions or concerns about a landowner group, contact us and we can help you determine your best options:
