Beneath a Texas tract are two estates, not one. The oil, gas, and other minerals can be owned, taxed, and transferred apart from the dirt on top, and a mineral deed is the instrument that makes that separation or carries a severed mineral interest from one owner to the next. This form prepares a general warranty mineral deed under Chapter 5 of the Texas Property Code, by which a grantor conveys a mineral interest and stands behind the title.
The Five Rights Inside a Mineral Estate
Texas courts describe a severed mineral estate as a bundle of five severable attributes: the right to develop, the right to lease (the executive right), the right to bonus payments, the right to delay rentals, and the right to royalty payments. The phrasing traces to the Texas Supreme Court in French v. Chevron U.S.A. Inc. and is repeated in mineral decisions to this day. A grantor does not have to convey all five: the deed can pass the whole estate, or convey the development and leasing rights while the grantor keeps a royalty, because each attribute is its own property interest.
Conveying the Whole, or Reserving a Piece
When a mineral estate is conveyed, every interest in it transfers unless the grantor specifically reserves something, which makes the reservation section the heart of the form. A grantor who reserves nothing conveys the entire mineral interest owned in the land; a grantor who reserves a one-fourth nonparticipating royalty keeps a share of production while handing over the rights to develop and lease. The completed example shows that reservation, and the guide explains how reservation wording can decide whether a reserved royalty is fixed or floating years later.
A Warranty That Reaches the Whole Chain
This is a general warranty deed. The grantor binds heirs, successors, and assigns to warrant and defend the interest conveyed against every person lawfully claiming it, not merely against claims arising through the grantor. That separates this instrument from a quitclaim, which warrants nothing, and from a deed without warranty, which conveys the property but adds no covenants. Stated exceptions, such as existing leases and prior reservations, are carved out of the warranty.
Signing, Homestead, and Recording
The grantor signs before a notary, and because a mineral deed conveys a present interest during life, marriage matters in a way it does not for a transfer that takes effect at death. Where the land is homestead, Texas Family Code Section 5.001 requires the grantor's spouse to join in the conveyance, so the form carries a joining-spouse signature block and a second notary certificate. Recording then protects the grantee against later purchasers, and a mineral interest underlying land in more than one county is recorded in each county where the land lies. The package includes the fillable deed, a completed example on a realistic Karnes County fact pattern, and a guide that walks every blank. The materials are informational and are not legal advice.

Hello, I like how easy the form is to follow. I'm unsure however of how to proceed as what I am trying to do is have my name added to the deed so in event of death I have ownership.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Ordered two separate forms for two separate states at two differnt times and couldn't be happier with my purchase. When compared to the cost of having two different attorneys prepare the forms I needed, the value of deeds.com couldn't be beat!
Thank you Gregory. We appreciate you taking the time to leave your feedback. Have a great day!

Ultimately, it directed me to the wrong form. Not very helpful. I had to turn to a title company to get my issue addressed.
Our website makes documents available to you. It does not direct you as to which one to use. We are glad that you sought the assistance it sounds like you needed. Have a wonderful day

The documents themselves are fine and the information provided with them is helpful. I find the actual processing of the documents, however, to be difficult particularly once the document has been saved. First, I note that the box for the date only allows entry of the last 2 digits of the year. Unfortunately, my download only allows me to enter one of the 2 digits required. When I delete it repeatedly, it eventually allows both digits to be entered but puts them in extremely small text and in superscrypt. I have not found a solution to this problem and am not sure the deed can even be recorded with this problem. Another problem is that if you try to revise the document after you have saved it the curser goes to the end of the line after each key entry. This means that there basically is no way to efficiently save the document for reworking later since you will have to delete everything you have entered in the text box unless you only need to make a single keystroke change or are willing to replace the curser after each entry. Try that with a long property description! Please note that I am using a Mac to prepare my documents and perhaps this is part of an "incompatibility problem". However, I didn't see a disclaimer regarding Mac use and so would expect the documents to perform correctly. Overall, I give the program a "2 star" rating because I am experiencing significant difficulties in entering dates in the documents even before saving them and because saving your work for later revision appears to be basically unworkable.
Thank you for your feedback Thomas, we appreciate you being specific about the issues you encountered. Adobe and Mac have a fairly long history of issues working together.
