I do list strong odors as a cosmetic issue. Sometimes the buyer is from out of town and does not see the home prior to a final walk-through or when moving in. That is when the phone would start ringing. I just note that an odor exists and may or may not dissipate over time. I let the buyer and sell work out all of the details and what they can live with. I feel I would be remiss by not mentioning it in the report. Heavy smoking odors in a closed home are also very offensive to some buyers.

You cannot always smell chemical off gassing.
You cannot smell methane. You cannot smell all moulds. You cannot smell Carbon Monoxide. You cannot smell Radon. You cannot smell..... |
