Advice Needed on how much $ to charge for damage
Looking for advise on how much to charge a tenant for a damaged floor. Tenant is moving out. Time to return security deposit. There is obvious and irreversible damage to 4 tiles in a galley kitchen. The cost of replacing the 4 tiles is $150 but it will be a missed match floor. The current tile on the floor is not aviable for purchase. I dont believe replacing 4 tiles and having a missed match floor is fare to me. Replacing the entire floor is $1700. What is a fair charge for thr damage? Im not looking to charge her full amount for a new floor. Whats reasonable?

@Megan Ritz I would check the tenant laws for NY. Here in California, you'd have to prorate the cost of the floor and the time shes lived there and the standard lifespan of the item.
