Why did a husband banish his wife to the cold outside? SO she would not smoke inside the home. Mr. Home Owner had asked years ago if a "Smoke Free" Home would help with it's sale. He knew they would be there for 5 years or less and be moving on, so everything he did was to make sure the home sale would be a an easy process.
The wife thought it was a "crock of Bananas" but was not giving it up, she went outside so not to smoke in front of her kids.
Is there any truth that a "Smoke Free" home will help the sale?
In my opinion it sure will help the sale. There is no down side. Some Buyers will request that their Buyer agent not show them any home where smokers live. If this had been a smoking home, it would be off some Buyers lists before they even start. In other scenarios I have had buyers walk out of homes that smelled like an ashtray.
All Home Owners may not go to the extent this one did with planning their sales 5 years previous, but nothing sells better than a clean home that smells good.

I sold them that home 5 years ago to them and when they called saying they could not think of using any other agent, I was humbled. I did remember that conversation 5 years ago and they remembered me for treating them so well.
Having the best Listing Agent or the best buyer agent is one of the best ways to be assured you are being taken care of when Buying or Selling a home.
If you are Buying or Selling a home, you need an agent who will work with you, look out for you and guide you through each step of the Buying and Selling process. Buyers and Sellers should know that they have a choice of agents. Use your choice to hire the BEST agent in your area, and know that bigger is not better.
I have put together a simple recipe for both Home Buyers and Sellers. Follow this along with pricing your home right, and the result can be a SOLD SIGN in your front yard.
THE TOP TIPS TO FIND A "GREAT" REAL ESTATE AGENT
1. LEARN THIS ONE FACT: One should know that All Agents are not created equal and every buyer or seller should take the time to hire the BEST not just the biggest Agent or Company. It is important to Hire the BEST Agent. In NH that could be me.
2. CHOOSE THE RIGHT AGENT: As a Buyer OR Seller in this market you need every advantage you can to get your home sold. It starts with choosing the right agent. a. Ask for a Full time agent whose sole job is to sell homes. b. Ask for a Full service agent who will guide you through each step of the selling process. Discount brokers often equal discount services. c. Ask for a Local agent who knows your neighborhood and is readily available when you need them is a must. Out of town agents can leave you high and dry in your time of need. d. Ask for a well experienced Listing Agent can give you the advantages you need when selling your home. Not all agents are created equal. Choose only the best.
3. HOME BUYERS SHOULD START BY: Getting a FREE PRE-QUALIFICATION with a local and trusted lender. They will look at your credit and financial picture and let you know what type of mortgage you may qualify for and what your interest rate and monthly payment may be.
4. HOME SELLERS SHOULD START BY: Getting a FREE MARKET ANALYSIS. Learn what your property is worth in today's market along with how ling it may take to sell. If you are ready to sell now, learn what you should ask for it. How much offers may come in at and what the approximate selling price should be. NH Home owners should contact me now.
IN SUMMARY the key to having a successful purchase or sale can increase simply choosing a better agent. The secret is that All Agents are not created equal and every buyer or seller should take the time to hire the BEST not just the biggest. I leave you with now infamous philosophy, which is simple, to provide more personal and professional service to guide my clients through each step of the buying or selling process.
