Farm & Ranch

Texas Farm & Ranch Title Services

Buying or selling a Texas farm or ranch involves far more than a standard residential transaction. Agricultural properties often include complex surface and mineral rights, water rights, agricultural exemptions, easements, and multi-parcel legal descriptions. Cottonwood Title & Escrow brings specialized experience in Texas rural and agricultural property transactions, ensuring every ownership detail is properly verified before closing.

Mineral Rights & Surface Rights Review

Texas is unique in the complexity of its mineral rights landscape. Our title examiners carefully review both surface and mineral ownership, identifying severed mineral interests, existing oil and gas leases, pipeline easements, and other encumbrances that are critical to rural property transactions. Understanding what you are - and are not - buying is essential, and we make sure you have the full picture.

Land Development & Subdivision Title Services

For developers acquiring raw land in Texas for residential or commercial development, our team provides comprehensive title services including survey review, zoning verification, plat preparation coordination, utility easement review, and phased closing management. We understand the timelines and documentation requirements of land development deals and work to keep your project on track.

Statewide Coverage for Rural Texas Transactions

Farm, ranch, and development transactions occur across all regions of Texas - from the Hill Country and South Texas to the Panhandle and East Texas Piney Woods. Cottonwood Title & Escrow has the statewide resources and underwriter relationships to handle rural transactions in any Texas county, no matter how complex the title history.
