Sector Expertise
We’ve mastered mineral asset management.
If you have interests in dozens, hundreds or even thousands of wells, it can be easy to overlook a tax bill. However, delinquency means accumulating penalties and interest. Conversely, Merit Advisors often sees companies unwittingly paying taxes on interests they don’t actually own. The sheer volume of paperwork required to stay compliant can be crushing—never mind avoiding property tax overpayments or even trying to lower your liability.
- Merit Advisors manages all your interests to ensure you pay the right amount to the right taxing jurisdiction at the right time.
- More than that, we apply our industry expertise, purpose-built technology and proprietary methodology to reduce your assessed values.
“Partnering with Merit allows me to focus on my day to day. It frees me up to really add value in other places.”
