How often do tenants destroy property during eviction?
Currently evicting a mother of four children. she is an inherited tenant. In your experience, how often does the tenant intentionally damage the unit during eviction? I'm already planning on new carpet, paint job, cleaning up a bunch of trash, etc. But how often do they rip all the plumbing out and break the sheetrock, etc?

Rip all the plumbing and break the sheetrock hasn't happened to any of my units. Maybe some of the other guys in here can chip in. Really depends on the class of your tenant and where the property is located, etc.
