I can't imagine this comes up that often. The closest thing I recall is a condo I looked at that had no carpet or flooring of any kind. Apparently the resident was an older man living alone who had fallen over and died, and then not been found until a neighbour complained about the smell. So the carpets came out and a restoration company did some work, and the bank was selling off the condo. (This was in 2009, it was worth less than what he had paid so the estate didn't want it).
Didn't end up buying it. Wouldn't have bothered me, but my wife felt differently. They did disclose the situation to buyers, but I don't think you'd have to, although I'm not positive about that.
