Sure, if you don't read the instruction manual, you can lose a finger, but if you use the tool with the proper procedures, you can create excellent results.

Agreed Tim G. neither are being good citizens so its a tough one to point fingers at!

Oh and don't forget the 3-fingered gloves.Serious answer though: the hand tools missing from your list are: cats paw nail pullers (framing nail and finish nail sizes), flat bars (big and small, I like to sharpen mine up), nail set, speed square, pliers, chisels, level, flush cut saw, and wrenches (crescent wrenches/adjustable wrench and socket set). 

I’m crossing my fingers for February.

I won't finger the tenant based on a landlord's guesstimate of what a normal bill is, let alone what her normal bill is, particularly where the landlord is trying to lay off his responsibility for structural maintenance.

I think I can have the repairs completed in the next 4 months, and could list the property for sale after the new year.Or would you get the issues resolved and then cross your fingers that he knocks it off? 

Now just fingers crossed for a good applicant in this next round.Thanks again everyone!

Sell them off and be done with it......worst case you buy another used set when the tenants take theirs with them at move out.....Your net of selling them and then buying another used set is likely going to be a wash or only slightly negative.....and you didn't deal with hassle of storing them or crossing your fingers that they still work in a couple of years when you hook them back up

Let's keep our fingers crossed.

Do it pass go or cross your fingers hoping the situation improves .
