Those spots which above normal man height may need a ladder to reach and wondering what the heck previous tenant nail at such height and why need to be so high?!

Furthermore, the wet area, like balcony wall and bathroom, old paint started to peel off with suspicious high moisture content. Worse still, fungus grows on the wall ruthlessly jeopardies its aesthetic.
