Reply to comment by stealthxstar in Potential problems with removing existing carpet over hardwood without refinishing or replacing carpet? by ASheepAtTheWheel
Yes. Black mold, floors could be shit, carpet could be difficult to remove, carpet pad could have mold, carpet pad could be difficult to remove, floors could be tough to refinish, floors might not be able to be refinished, and the carpet may not be able to be reused and OP would have to purchase new carpet and new carpet pad.
Almost anything could arise. Which is why it's not smart to invest time and money fixing up a place that isn't yours.

It appears that you didn’t see my earlier comment. I am legally cleared to do this. The only question is who is paying for what replacement/refinishing, if any. In addition I work with real estate developers and contractors daily and am well-versed in black mold. In addition I am also trained in the identification of hazardous/historic construction materials as well as their safe removal and disposal. I didn’t ask for judgment on my situation and I’m not entirely sure why you care so much about whether or not I’m “messing” with someone else’s property, but thank you for your input.

Then, it sounds like you should have all this figured out and not need any advice.
