You heard me- I have the complete guide of how to NOT sell your home. In this market it is especially important to heed these instructions or you may end up with a sold house, and who would want that?!

First things first, Overprice Your Home. I understand that you want to get your price and because of that, you should price accordingly, even if the figure you came up with is nowhere near close to the actual market value of the property. Also, be sure to not budge on any offers that come in below asking price. You want to sell your house for X amount of dollars and you need to strive to get that, even if it means not selling it.

Second thing to remember; Don't Make Any Improvements to Your Home. At all! Don't think of doing any cosmetic or structural work on your home. If buyers want it- they'll put an offer in. I understand that your house has a LOT of charm and it has so much more value then the buyers are seeing. If they can't see it, you don't want them buying it anyways!

And finally, Hire an Incompetent Realtor. Or better yet, hire a discount agent. A realtor is a realtor is a realtor. Just pick any of them. They're all the same anyways and will give you great service so it doesn't matter who you hire.

Signed, a VERY mis-informed consumer
