Description

This form addresses the situation in which mineral owners, as owners of the dominant estate, agree to relinquish their rights to make use of the surface of specific lands in which they own mineral interests. North Carolina Subordination by Mineral Owners of Rights to Make Use of the Surface Estate — Transfer allows mineral owners to transfer their rights to make use of the surface estate to a third party while still maintaining control over the mineral rights. This legal arrangement is particularly relevant to the real estate industry and is commonly used in North Carolina. In this type of subordination, the mineral owner retains the ownership and control over the underground minerals or resources that may be present on a particular property. However, they are willing to subordinate their rights to make use of the surface estate to another party. This means that the surface owner (the third party) is given the right to use the surface area of the property for various purposes such as building structures, conducting agricultural activities, or any other use that is not in conflict with the mineral rights of the subordinating owner. The subordination by mineral owners of rights to make use of the surface estate — transfer can be categorized into two main types: 1. Absolute subordination: This type of subordination gives the third party surface owner unrestricted rights to use the surface estate without any limitations imposed by the mineral owner. The mineral owner fully and irrevocably subordinates their right to use the surface estate in favor of the third party, allowing them to utilize the property as desired. 2. Conditional subordination: Unlike absolute subordination, conditional subordination allows the mineral owner to place certain conditions or restrictions on the use of the surface estate by the third party. These conditions may include limitations on the type of structures that can be built, restrictions on environmental impact, or guidelines for surface restoration after extraction activities. By setting these conditions, the mineral owner aims to ensure the protection and preservation of their mineral rights while enabling controlled use of the surface estate. North Carolina Subordination by Mineral Owners of Rights to Make Use of the Surface Estate — Transfer is an essential tool in the real estate industry, enabling effective collaboration between mineral owners and surface owners. By using this legal provision, parties can maintain a harmonious relationship while still utilizing the surface estate for their respective needs. It allows for the simultaneous use and development of both surface lands and mineral resources, providing opportunities for economic growth and sustainable land use practices.
