Home inspections do not investigate or report anything related to cigarette smoking.... I agree rather foolish for a buyer to buy a home and then sue to get it cleaned up... but it happens all the time with buyers suing for all sorts of things... that they should know about or are obvious after they move in.

That is why the buyer needs to personally inspect for cleanliness. It is not difficult to figure out if it is a surface clean only for the home or if it is truly clean. If a home buyer doesn't know how to tell, then they may want to gain the knowledge necessary to do so.
