To Smoke or Not to Smoke?

This is a bit of a dilemma for the folks that are still smokers.  It is your house and there are so many places where you are no longer allowed to smoke that your own house seems OK, but is it?
 
In the last few years as the number of smokers has declined I have found that when prospective buyers look at homes where they can smell  smoke in the front hall they just walk back out again, especially if they have children.  If they do stay and look at the house and decide to put in an offer they will offer much less than asking price because they factor in the cost of repainting and re-carpeting.  

Smoking is bad for your health but it can also be bad for your wallet!
