Can you fish that pond?  

Nathan, if they are the old 1980's/1990s' wood, I have had luck just cleaning/deglossing with TSP (cuts all past oils/dirt from kitchen) and a scrub sponge (use rough side), rinse and then go with Polyshades (stain/poly in one).

Steve & I are working on several existing production oil deals.

The bigger fish out there won't take the time to do this.  

You're from the heart of oil country.  

If he doesn't want to sell it for that amount there are plenty of fish in the sea.

I presently work in the Oil and Gas industry and travel anywhere from 6-10 months out of the year.

Has the oil down turn effected the Houston market very much?

If, however, the CB brokerage is large in terms of number of agents that are physically there to snatch up the walk-in traffic or the brokerage has a location that doesn't lend itself to walk-in traffic, then being a part of a large brokerage in a smaller market just means there's more big fish in a small lake and not much left for you.  

(used this solution mostly when the towel bar end broke.)One bathroom we had like this we actually found some tiles with fish on them at home depot and added them.
