If these mechanisms are not in place we seek out an amount from seller to be held post closing for repair or replacement of big ticket items.

My lease states tenant is responsible for pest control and appliance repair .

Seems like yesterday when he and I talked on the phone about me becoming a moderator.

After all these repairs thinking it could go for 750-800 maybe?

I agree with your question about any building repairs, especially any major ones. 

The "need some work" ones don't bother me as I am handy and don't mind building a network to repair/improve the property.

But if someone does manage to damage it, individual pieces can be replaced instead of having to repair the entire floor. 

The next day, he was still there and he blocked my phone # so I couldn't contact him.

How are you estimating the repair costs?
