Would you take the meeting?

My dad has a few windmill turbines on his land — he gets a decent-sized check each year for the 1 acre of land it takes up. Each lease is good for a total of 30 years (some have been active for 8 years, others just started up in 2020).

(Each lease also has an option to renew in 30 years as well.)

He got a letter in the mail from a company that offered to pay him 70% (or 75%, can’t remember) of the remaining lease value in one lump sum.

He wouldn’t even take a meeting.
