Title Research

Thorough examination of county records, courthouse documents, and chain-of-title to establish clear, accurate ownership history for any tract of land.

The Foundation of Every Land Project

Reliable title research is the backbone of any successful oil and gas land program. Without it, leasing, acquisition, and development decisions are made on uncertain ground.

Border Resources LLC conducts thorough, systematic title research in county courthouses across our operating states — examining deeds, mortgages, oil and gas leases, assignments, court records, probate filings, and all other instruments in the public record to establish a complete chain of title for each tract under review.

Our landmen are experienced with the specific records systems, indexing challenges, and historical quirks of local courthouses, allowing us to work efficiently without sacrificing accuracy or completeness.

Records We Examine

  • Warranty and quitclaim deeds
  • Oil, gas, and mineral leases
  • Assignments and conveyances
  • Mortgages and releases
  • Probate and estate records
  • Court judgments and liens
  • Corporate filings and mergers
  • Federal and state patents
  • Easements and rights-of-way
