1.  Make sure your home has no curb appeal, this will guarantee that potential buyers won’t get out of the car.

2.  Do not stage your home.  No Feng Shui allowed here!

3.  Restrict your showing times, make it really difficult for agents and buyers to see your home.

4.  Please take no pictures, anyone looking online will see a map with a little house indicating the location of your home.  This is plenty of information!

5.  Absolutely no pictures of the inside.  As a result buyers looking online will not spend more than 15 seconds looking at your home.

6.  Keep your home off as many websites as possible.  Advertising online could attract buyers.

7.  Do not pay for any inspections.  Buyers will have several contingencies and have plenty of reasons to get out of the contract.

8.  Do not clean or unclutter your home.  Buyers who make it through the front door will leave quickly.

9.  Please do not have a sign in your front yard.  Your neighbors won’t know that you are selling and can’t tell their friends who always wanted to move into the neighborhood.  Keep it a secret!

10.  If you are not a smoker, start smoking now.  Buyers hate any kind of smell and smoke is on top of their list.
