Where We Buy · North Dakota · McLean County ## Sell your McLean County mineral rights. Washburn, Garrison, Underwood: we buy minerals and royalties throughout McLean County. [Get a Free Valuation](https://www.berlinroyalties.com/free-valuation/) or call or text [918-984-1645](tel:9189841645) McLean County is where the Bakken runs out of room. The play's southeastern margin clips the county's northwest corner near Lake Sakakawea, and tracts there carry real value, while the rest of the county is farm and lake country with scattered legacy wells. Two McLean interests can differ enormously, which is exactly why county-average pricing misleads. Part of northwestern McLean lies within the Fort Berthold Reservation, where some minerals are held in federal trust and some are fee. Which kind you own changes everything about a sale, and we will help you sort that out honestly before anyone talks price. Formations & Plays ## What produces here ### Bakken and Three Forks fringe The play's southeastern margin clips northwestern McLean near Lake Sakakawea. ### Legacy conventional Scattered older production elsewhere in the county.

[Read the North Dakota guide](https://www.berlinroyalties.com/guide/north-dakota/) Questions ## Straight answers for McLean County owners What are mineral rights worth in McLean County? Near the lake in the northwest, where the Bakken margin reaches, real money; across most of the county, modest legacy value. We price off the actual wells and units around your tract, not a county average, and show the work, free. Our minerals are held in trust through the BIA. Can Berlin buy them? Generally no, not outright. Allotted trust minerals transfer only through the federal process, and we will tell you that plainly rather than waste your time. Fee minerals, the kind conveyed by a recorded deed at the county courthouse, we buy regularly, and we will help you figure out which kind you own, free. What does it cost me to sell? Nothing. Berlin pays all title work, document preparation, and recording costs. The offer you accept is the amount you receive. ## Before you sign anything in McLean County The things owners here most often wish they had read first.
