I disagree. I think it is just a fact that it limits who will buy the house. To make yourself a victim out of it is ridiculous.
If you smoke in the house then the house will smell of smoke. That's fine if you don't mind it. This article just points out that as people have become sensitive to the smell they are choosing not to buy the home. It's been true in the used car business for years. That's why a lot of ads say "non-smoker" in them.

I'm not making myself out to be a victim. I was making reference to the real estate industry in the state of Delaware.
I sold my house for what I wanted for it, I'm not a victim.
As to it limiting who buys the house - when no one is shown the house, no one can make a decision about whether they find something wrong or not, can they? But that goes back to my comments regarding the real estate industry and the particular agent I had in the beginning - nothing to do with smoking or not.
