However, the oil market is only one slice of Houston’s economy.

I currently am a truck driver for the oil fields here in Pennsylvania and make on avg 4000 take home per month and my monthly expenses are 1300 for bills not including food and other expenses for children and personal.

Also we are planning on ripping the oil furnace out and putting in a high efficiency gas so I feel as though I should play hard ball and tell him to take his fuel which legally he can do before closing, if that is the case the PVC vents could go away however that's only worth 200.

I too am in the PA area and there are definitely alot of rentals in this state especially because of the oil boom bumping housing prices up.

My aunt had an commercial property in  northern NJ where the tenant dumped oil. 

Oil and gas royalties are real.

The furnace is old but working (oil) and the well is ok.  

I was thinking of getting one, house is 100 year old I would be putting it on and is oil heat.

I analyze what I have to do versus what I am saving.For example with changing your oil by the time you do it, get dirty, and have to dispose of the oil it takes more time and only saves you a few bucks.

In addition, the building uses oil heat.
