How to unlock the You're doing it wrong achievement in House Flipper - Definitive Guide

To get this achievement, you'll need to buy a house, which you can do in the "Browser" section of your laptop (to the best of my knowledge you can't kill a cockroach while working the jobs in the "Mail" section, you can only suck them up with the vacuum). I bought the first one listed called "Abandoned House". Once at the house you just bought, head to the back left room (Small Kitchen 6M2). There will be a few boxes and other items to clean up. Among all that will be the roaches. Simply open the ability wheel with cn_LT, select the "Demolition" option to pull out your hammer, and smash those bugs. After a few seconds you should have a shiny new achievement.

@DampishAgate10, make sure you're in the house after going through the browser. There is a setting where instead of roaches, I believe it's bits of broken glass. Make sure it's set to the bugs. I don't think it would be randomly generated and therefore different for everyone, but I could be wrong. My best suggestion in that case would be to keep trying the crappy, rundown houses until you come across the roaches.

@DampishAgate10 In the settings, look under "Gameplay" and there should be the option "Display broken glass instead of cockroaches." Turn that off and you should see them. I'm on PC but it should be the same for the console.

If anyone else is struggling to find a house with cockroaches after doing the cheap abandoned houses early on, the house called 'Variable Woman's House' (bought for about 89k) had cockroaches in the kitchen near the sink.

Bought the house, went in, found them, selected the demolition tool, aimed it at the cockroaches on the floor, and held RT to swing the hammer a few times, popped instantly.

Hello everyone,
Before you even start going for this achievement do the following:
Settings -> General, and look for "Display Broken Glass Instead Of Cockroaches" and make sure it's OFF! (Mine was on by default and the Glass doesn't count as Cockroaches).

House: "Abandoned House",
Go inside the house, go to the Back and open the door to the left, they should be right in front of you on the ground.

Take our your hammer (demolition) and hit a group of them

Achievement Unlocked!

Hi all,

If like me you sold everything you need for this achievement simply finish the game by completing and selling all available houses. You're going to get the complete the game achievement and open up all the houses again to resell. Most can simply be cleaned then sold with zero expense. Sell heater, air con and towel warmer installations for no game punishment when buying to sell, re-use dirty furniture and still turn profit. When you complete and sell all properties you restart with all 32 available allowing you to revisit missed achievements.
