We are getting gas ran into the property for HE Gas heater instead of oil heat.

Houston's main industry is oil and Gas, shipping,. 

I ran into something similar with a flip that had an oil burner, and the oil soot was circulating in the house due to a bad burner.

With oil drilling ticking up, the skilled construction worker type will be choosing whether to work in the oil fields or rebuilding Houston. 

A few years ago he was Dollar cost averaging, then  all about buying property in the bay area, then he was doing side hustles with friends to buy properties with negative cash flow, then he had a portfolio with a couple of momentum stocks, then he went to all gold, then has been selling some of his houses and been dabbling in all manner of stocks of development play miners, and believes the stock market is massively over priced.  

These are the 25 people that will have first dibs on the deals we get in the pipeline.I love the concept and believe that it will be a well oiled machine after this first major deal..

I'm looking for advice on how best to utilize my inherited mineral interest in a 2,000 acre tract of land in WV.

You could refi your 50% equity property to pull out more cash and use that and the $200k to buy more rentals or to invest as you like (Crowdfund, syndication, stock market, oil, metals, start ups, etc).

I generally use this detergent to clean oil spots on the driveway, not to use it to clean any linens or towels.

(Oil too, depending on the furnace).
