Under $50 tenant pays clause?

[Joseph Gisler]

I recently got my rental agreement officially reviewed by a RE lawyer (yay) and he suggested a clause he sees a lot is “repairs under $50 are responsible by the tenant” or a number similar to $50.

Who does this and what is your success/response from said clause? It sounds like a great idea in that it eliminates the need to answer every little repair request but also, minor cost items that can cause major damage (such as a leaky shut off valve) can then go unfixed by the tenant causing bigger issues in the long run! Others opinions are greatly appreciated!
