We expected some carpet damage and that a repaint would be needed but in reality the wood floors are destroyed, windows need replacing, all carpets need to be replaced, cabinets require replacing or refinishing, and the grounds need landscaping.Originally our plan was to fix this home and sell it.

@LarryF - perhaps as my first post on biggerpockets (moderator needed to vet the post first), they wanted to limit the damage I can do!

Also, I inherited tenants so after close I contacted them and said I wanted to do a "Move In Walk Through" with them looking for damage.

Has anyone done any damage claims and received reimbursement?

I don't really care whether the back right burner of the stove doesn't work or there's some water damage on some joists somewhere. 

There was water damage from a pipe burst and some of the drywall and flooring has been removed by what the seller is calling a "professional company paid for by the insurance company".  

A foreclosure afterwards does do some further damage, but the majority is already done.If the property sells at the foreclosure auction for more than the judgment amount then they would get the balance, assuming there are no additional liens..You will hear a lot of untrue and exaggerated claims and ideas in guru “training”.

They offer new appliances that were damaged in shipping to the box stores or the box store has too much in inventory. 

The house needs a lot of work, as it seems like someone opened a window a long time ago, and I don't doubt that local residents of the forest have found a home in there (not to mention potential water damage... gahh!)

Third, was there any sort of move in checklist that would show what the existing damage/wear was on the unit?
