@Jay M. hit the nail on the head here.

Quote from @Jay Moore: John nailed it.

I have to remove the nails on the walls, add fillers, touch up and repaint some part of the home.

@Jill F. hit the nail on the head with "Your careful questioning is probably saving you from expensive problems".Just encountered a similar situation myself.

An astounding volume of scuff marks and abrasions, nail holes, a ferw actual holes, it is beyond comprehension.

There are ALWAYS hidden surprises like electric that got ran around the meter 15yrs ago, copper stub-outs off galvanized plumbing, split floor joists held together by nailed-in 2x4s, etc.

@Jeff Bousquet@Dan K. hit the nail on the head in his summarization of the Springfield area.

Thomas S. ate nails and newby landlords for a light snack.

I wish this would put a nail in the coffin of fraudsters, but unfortunately, that is wishful thinking.
