Cigarette smoke just ruins everything!
I have never smoked and never will, I just cannot stand the smell. For some reason that smell bothers me more then any other foul smell you can think of.
Anyway I did an open for another agent yesterday, and this house is owned by chain smokers. The smell was so bad I could still smell it on my clothing two hours after I left. Everyone that came through thought that the house wasn't bad but was turned off by the smell. I agree the house is in a great location, has a nice yard, and is in good shape. Its priced well and just needs some minor updating to be quite nice. Why hasn't it sold in 6+ months? Its the smell, people just can't stand it. Before you could even consider moving in you would have to rip up the carpets and repaint the whole thing, along with airing it out. Its not my listing but if it was I would strongly suggest that the owners smoke outside, and at least have the carpet professional cleaned if not outright replaced, along with paint.
They completly ruin cars as well, one of my Aunt's smokes quite a bit and her cars are horrible inside. They are clean but stink, how do you sell something like that? I would never buy a smokers car.
I don't know who is a smoker here, but man you guys make your homes and cars stink.
