Inspectors can’t rip apart the walls. A fresh coat of paint can hide a lot of damage. I would know because this happened to me, and I had two inspections done.

Sadly, I’d place home inspections closer to useless to useful for me because I am familiar enough with housing codes to do a visual inspection.
