Best part was that they were all super-friendly, welcoming, and happy to chat about their passion and mine...real estate and taking action.If you are worried about showing up not knowing someone, don't be.

Easements.. that could adversely affect the property.. again if this is lot and block in a subdivion the worse case would be some utl easement.4. mineral rights.. again in a lot and block subdivision setting mineral rights are moot.. many times they are owned by the govmit.. but have no bearing on your title being marketable. those are a few I see as common place exceptions..pretty straight forward as Jeff stated ..

I've done a lot of reading into Texas lease options (specifically how they can't be longer than 6 months - mainly due to old time mineral rights contracts), and it fascinates me how other investors do them successfully, and without potential litigation.

Land contracts are usually different, but no less complicated, particularly when it comes to mineral rights, environmental issues, due diligence, zoning, etc., especially if you're purchasing four separate parcels as a bundle. 

My experience is heavy in oil, gas, minerals, and more recently, commercial buildings.Have owned 3 rentals in the past and currently have 1 under lease for a five year term:  Class A - appreciation focused, but CFs at ~$2400/yr. 

The contract states that mineral rights don't come with the property which is standard.

During my research I read about potential pitfalls “Strips, SIDS, Minerals and Contamination”.

Mineral rights - Mineral rights in Texas do not automatically convey, if you don't own them the owner can drill or mine the land.
