[quote=Anonymous]If it's a urine issue, as others have said, it may never go away. If it's not urine, the smell probably will dissipate, but may take some time. I couldn't stand the smell when we first moved into our house -- not animal-related. I think it was the cleaning solution the previous owners used. They must have used it for decades; I know they lived here for 30 years or so. My husband barely noticed but it bothered me so much I wondered if I'd be able to stay in the house. It took almost a year to fully go away. Even now, four years later, I catch an occasional whiff if we've been away for more than a week. It goes away immediately once we start cooking etc and replacing it with "our" smells. Bottom line -- if you can't live with the smell, if it makes you sick, you probably shouldn't take the house because you may live with it for quite a while. If it's bothersome but not sickening, and you otherwise love the place and can use some scents or something to cover it up, then it might not be bad.[/quote]
