Geospatial Intelligence & Analysis
Decision-ready land intelligence before you commit. We verify, not guess-using historical aerial imagery and geospatial data analysis to identify constraints, encumbrances, and development risks that impact project viability.
Site Constraints Analysis: Flood Zones, Slope Analysis & Environmental Factors
Comprehensive constraint mapping identifying flood zones, terrain limitations, wetlands, protected species habitat, and other environmental factors that determine buildable acreage. Delivered as GIS shapefiles and constraint maps showing exactly where development is viable-eliminating costly surprises after lease execution.
Historical Usage Verification & Easement Mapping
Detailed analysis of historical land use patterns and comprehensive mapping of existing easements, pipelines, transmission lines, and encumbrances. Identifies conflicts that could block development or require costly relocations-enabling informed site selection and risk assessment before project commitment.
Conceptual Subdivision & Land Planning
Strategic land planning and conceptual subdivision design maximizing property value and development potential. Integrates constraint analysis with ownership research to create viable development plans that account for physical limitations, regulatory requirements, and market conditions.
Title Curative & Forensics
Modern infrastructure requires clean chains of title. We specialize in complex curative work, moving rapidly from sovereignty to present ownership. Whether resolving heirship gaps or fixing historical defects, our research is remote-capable, tech-enabled, and surgically precise.
Sovereignty-to-Present Title Runs
Comprehensive title research tracing ownership from original land grants to current ownership. Identifies gaps, defects, and encumbrances that could block transactions or create post-closing liability. Delivered as decision-ready run sheets with risk coding enabling pre-closing curative work.
Heirship Affidavits & Probate Analysis
Resolution of heirship issues and probate gaps that create title defects. We identify missing heirs, draft curative affidavits, and coordinate with probate courts to clear title when estate administration is incomplete. Essential for properties with long-dormant ownership or unresolved estates.
Remote Abstracting & Title Research
Technology-enabled title research leveraging digital county records, probate databases, and proprietary research tools. Remote-capable abstracting eliminating the need for physical courthouse visits while maintaining accuracy and completeness. Ideal for large-scale acquisitions requiring rapid due diligence.
Surface Stewardship & Damage Settlement
Construction is temporary, but the land is perpetual. Drawing on a background in conservation and land management, we draft Surface Use Agreements (SUAs) that protect the asset while enabling the work. We ensure fair compensation for damages and strict adherence to restoration standards.
Damage Documentation & Geospatial Analysis
Pre-construction baseline documentation using geospatial intelligence and historical aerial imagery. We analyze and document soil conditions, vegetation, and infrastructure before work begins, then provide ongoing geospatial analysis to identify and document damages. Essential for protecting landowner interests during pipeline, transmission line, and renewable energy projects.
Restoration Compliance & Ag-Use Protection
Post-construction restoration verification ensuring contractors meet restoration standards specified in surface use agreements. We verify topsoil replacement, seed mix compliance, erosion control measures, and agricultural use restoration. Protects long-term productivity of agricultural lands and ensures compliance with lease terms.
Surface Use Agreement Drafting & Negotiation
Drafting and negotiation of surface use agreements that protect landowner interests while enabling infrastructure development. We ensure fair compensation structures, restoration standards, damage settlement procedures, and operational restrictions that balance development needs with long-term land stewardship.
Notary & Execution Services
The 'Last Mile' of every transaction is the execution. We provide bonded, licensed execution services across the state. From remote online notarizations (RON) to field closings in remote counties, we ensure every instrument is perfected immediately.
Remote Online Notarization (RON)
State-authorized RON service (where available) for out-of-state owners, deployed military, elderly in care facilities, and corporate officers. Secure video sessions with identity verification and digital journaling-enabling transaction closure without physical presence requirements. Note: RON authorization varies by state (e.g., California does not authorize RON). Note: RON session management is currently unavailable pending BlueNotary integration.
Mobile Notary Services
Mobile notary services traveling to signer locations throughout Texas. Essential for rural landowners, elderly signers, and document execution. We bring the notary to you-ensuring proper execution without requiring signers to travel to fixed offices. Available statewide with priority service in Central Texas.
Document Recording & Filing
Coordination of document recording with county clerks and state agencies. We ensure proper execution, acknowledgment, and filing of deeds, affidavits, and other instruments. Handles filing requirements across all 254 Texas counties, eliminating the administrative burden from clients.
