Nope, no such problems... maybe the properties being empty in my case, versus full in yours (plants, etc.) was a factor? Nothing in there that could release moisture or be a source of mold. Also, another factor may be that the material these shoes were made of was a "fertile ground" for mold; conversely, in an empty house with concrete walls and floors, there's no attractive environment for it.
In any case, whatever the explanation, I can vouch for the fact an empty house with a waterproof roof can go through the years without issues.
