Have you ever walked into a home that you were showing and about passed out from the smoke smell? Well it really turned my buyers off and they loved the home but would not make an offer on it for just that reason.
I know there are alot of smokers still out there but my advise would be about 6 months before you are going to put your home on the market smoke only outside and in the mean time let the home air out completely.
My buyers wanted new carpet and paint just to try and get the smell out as they have 2 infant daughters.
So sellers, if you smoke, please remember it could cost you the sale of your home.

You don't have to loose a contract to a smoke filled home!
Instead of waiting 6 months for the smoke to clear, we've got a better solution.
Cigarette Smoke is a greasy tar that gets in carpets, on walls and in air ducts. The good thing is that it can be removed without having to REDUCE the asking price for your home.
Simply repaint your home's interior (which you were going to do anyway and adds value to your home) and then contact a professional carpet cleaning company that is experienced in smoke removal and an duct cleaning firm and your smoke problems can be eliminated.
