There is a hole at the base of my front lower tooth at the back of the tooth. I was wondering if its possible to have this repaired as I am not gonna be happy to have a gap there.

The short answer is yes.
Here's the long one it does depend to a degree what caused it and how deep it is.
If it is gum recession then it can be filled but it doesn't always have a high success rate.
If it is decay no problem unless it is very deep then the tooth may need removing.
If the decay is at the bottom of your tooth near the gum, then it is unlikely that a crown would be suitable.
Best thing to do is to discuss it with your dentist they will let you know all your options.

This is a failure of your real estate agent in not discussing this with you and explaining that all of the repairs would have to be made before the lenders will release the money. The paperwork should have said that the cost of repairs, if any, would be split at closing. That is only fair, you are making an investment in the house and then the buyer will enjoy the investment you make. The cost should be split evenly and the paper work should have reflected that. It sounds like you need a new real estate agent.

Yes, your tooth can be repaired with bonding material. Depending on how much tooth structure is gone you may need a crown. It is best to get it taken care of as soon as possible, especially if the "hole" is decay but it could also be abrasion (brushing too hard).

Yeah, go to your doctor, they should have a synthetic "filling" which should be fine... It may look and feel somewhat odd though.
Goodluck with it.

It may just be a sore, give it a day or two.
