How do I get property buyers to stop harassing me?
The same company has been harassing for the better part a year now wanting to buy a property I don't own. I have filled a DO NOT CALL registration, I have blocked their numbers multiple times, I have told them to stop calling and to remove my name from their list, and now I'm getting maybe 1 or 2 calls a day and multiple texts.

I tell them I'm accepting offers of $2,000,000+. My home is worth about $100,000.
This is basically my strategy as well but I give them a number I’d legit be willing to sell for, currently it’s 3x what I paid for it, as-is with a required waiver on inspection.
It’s the top for the range of what I could sell my house for if it was in prime condition with the current markets, so it’s not unreasonable. Prime condition it absolutely isn’t (it needs several thousand worth of fixes, in addition to the several thousand I’ve already done on this cheap pos. It’s 140+ years old. It has problems), hence the waived inspection and as-is clause.
If they still want it, I’ll sell. It would save me tons of money getting it saleable.
But they never call/text back… not ever..
Apparently top of market price for the property plus “as is, waived inspection” will get them to leave you alone… and if you’d be willing to sell for that and they go for it, you win. They know you know your shit, so aren’t worth bothering, and you win if they go for it.
Where do you live that any home is only worth 100k? Even looking 100 miles away I can only find undeveloped land or dilapidated, former hoarder nests for less than 150k.
This. But where do you live in where you can find undeveloped land or dilapidated, former hoarder nests for less than 150k?
More than double that in my country.
Middle of nowhere Nebraska. It’s not a good option, but it exists

And there’s a 1/1 in the same city for $95k
The main drawback is that you have to live in Nebraska
There’s a lot of ~65k houses in Indiana, as well.
I live in a low cost area and that’s about the only place I could move to come out ahead if I sell. Because houses there cost what I paid in 2013 for roughly equivalent places.. but they don’t get much weather, and I’d rather ride out the climate catastrophe in a water rich region than a wanna-be desert..
Yeah I was thinking southern Illinois or rural New Mexico would have cheap houses too, but looked in Nebraska for no reason
Wow, that's pretty amazing!!
Living in rural America could be that cheap. But you're in small shithole areas.
Downtown Huntington, WV definitely does have houses in that range, but it's had a combination of elderly houses and significant population outflow over the years, and the houses date to an era from before when cars were really a thing, so you're likely not to have a garage.
Perceived "rough" side of a major city.
