 "Little" bit of staining.

The carpets get shampooed on top, but it's the underlay that hold the stink, I think.
Another thing I see a lot. They will shampoo the carpet, but then turn all the heat off, because they've moved out. Then the carpet strips go rusty and leave a black line along all the walls.

Someone there had a dog who could no longer make it outdoors. Dogs and people get that way near the end. Better off if that were a vinyl floor...

Here are questions about carpets installed on concrete basement floors.
Is it expected that if you probe through the carpet and into the padding with a moisture meter that you'll get elevated moisture readings? Consider the meter probes are not in contact with the concrete but only the padding. Is it unreasonable to expect it to be dry?
I've checked basement carpets/padding and found that some show elevated moisture levels. The levels are high in some areas and low in others so it makes me wonder what's going on.

I wouldn't believe the RE. It could very well have been the owners.
