Institutional Landman Due Diligence
Every parcel acquired and cleared by Vets.land is accompanied by a professional 6-part Chain-of-Title (COT) packet, audited to the highest standards of the American Association of Professional Landmen (AAPL).
The Complete Deliverable
When we deliver acreage to a military veteran, there are no surprises, missing easements, or forgotten heir clouds. Every file includes these six components:
A chronological ledger recording every instrument recorded in the county deed books from the original sovereign land patent granted by the state or federal government to the present day. We audit every conveyance, deed of trust, release, tax judgment, and right-of-way.
In western and southern oil and gas basins, the mineral estate is dominant. Our MOR documents the exact percentage of mineral ownership severed, identifies active oil, gas, or solar leases, and secures recorded Surface Damage Waiver Agreements where possible to protect future home sites.
A visual schematic mapping the legal descent of title across generations. When solving heir property, this diagram links birth certificates, death records, marriage licenses, and Affidavits of Heirship to account for every statutory fractional share.
A certified, signed boundary survey completed by a Registered Professional Land Surveyor (RPLS). Metes and bounds are mathematically closed, physical iron pins are located or set, and fence line encroachments are audited.
Written, recorded proof of direct access. Either dedicated frontage on an established public county/state road, or an express perpetual appurtenant easement corridor (minimum 30 to 60 feet wide) running with the land forever.
Issued through a licensed local title company or title underwriter. We audit Schedule B exceptions to ensure standard pre-printed survey exceptions are amended and no unrecorded rights encumber your equity.
