If you're selling

Don't say: "You're offering how much? Forget you!"

Instead: When bidders lob low-balls at you, thank them for their interest and ask that they come back with earnest offers. "If you become offended enraged, or unreasonable, you've blown any chance at negotiation." says Warwick R.I. real estate agent Ron Phipps.

Check the comps to make sure your price isn't too high.)
