Door was broken during break-in due to tenant's actions...who bears the cost?

[Derek Martin]

Last week one of our properties was broken into. They kicked in the back door and allegedly stole a fairly significant amount of cash. The tenant was very upset and I feel very bad for her. 

However, I obtained a copy of the police report. It states that the tenant's daughter had three juvenile boys over at the house the day before. The daughter was showing off and showed the boys the stack of money. Nobody else knew the cash was there. The house was broken into the very next day. Everything was untouched except the cash was missing. 

Again, I feel horrible for the tenant. I replaced the door and frame immediately at a cost of $550. Does anyone have any experience - or words of wisdom - on passing along this cost to the tenant?

I could take it out of her security deposit, but I feel this should/could be separate.

Who pays for it? Either you or your insurance company. Your deductible is likely at least $500 so basically, you are footing this bill.
