Death of Housecarls

Sometimes, during the course of the game, the 'bodyguard' that comes with your house dies. In Riften, I killed a chicken and then was forced to kill the housecarl because she was attacking me for it. You should get an inheritance via courier eventually.

The Guardian Stones

Use the Guardian Stones when leveling up. Activate the stone that enhances the skill you are leveling up. For example, when you're leveling up smithing activate the warrior stone.

Nirnroot

If you're doing the task for Ingun Blackbrier, or just need some Nirnroot, go to the North Coast (above Solitude). Nirnroot is quite plentiful there, and stands out against the white/gray ground

Invisible Refillable Chest

In Dawnstar, there is an invisible chest nestled between a tree and four small rocks. It is based on level. Go to Youtube.com and look up "achievement hunters, sky rim, invisible chest" and it should show up.

Light armor beats heavy armor version

The starting armor rating for dragon scale armor is better than dragon plate armor and if you level it up it can get to over 100 armor rating thats over standard legendary stat on armor

Using Enchanters, Cooking Pots etc

If an NPC is using something that you want access to (grindstone, forge, cooking pot etc), simply double tap A when you are prompted to use it. This should kick the NPC off of whatever it is and give you access to it.

No Dual Marriages

If you agree to marriage with two or more people at once, you will end up marrying the last one you agreed to. So, if you accidentally accept someone's request, just don't set up the marriage. Find the spouse you really want.

Marriage

In order to marry someone, go to Riftin (far right side of Skyrim) and head to the Temple of Mara. You can purchase an Amulet of Mara there for 200 gold. Then, wear it around, and someone will eventually tell you they're interested in you. It's more likely if you do something for the person before hand.

After the marriage, you can either tell your spouse to come live in your house, or go live in theirs (if they have one). You can switch houses later, if you want.

Picking Stuff Up

It may seem obvious to other people, but it took me a while to figure it out: to pick stuff up (bodies, objects etc) hold A while pointing at the thing. If it isn't too heavy, you should be able to pick up the object and carry it.

How to unlock homes for sale.

All you have to do is proceed through the story until you kill your first dragon outside of whiterun the king of the town will tell you he has told his steward to allow you to purchase land in his city after you tell him the dragon is dead. It costs 5000 gold "because being the dragon born and saving an entire city from destruction isn't worth anything." and uprages to the house will be close to 2000 gold total. Just keep progressing through the storyline and you will most likely unlock all of the other houses in due time.
