I'd repair some of these things myself, if I lived nearby. But that's not an option and so the letter of the lease is all I have. I also don't want to set a precedent by letting it slide once because he'll take that to mean he never has to pay it again. The one thing I let it slide on was the shower drain spout because he mentioned it to me the first week he lived there, but obviously hadn't taken a shower there before he did the walk-through checklist. I think I'm being fair here.

I guess is time to have a talk with your tenant and review the contract.
I will let it slide now.
Not the next one per contract.
