Nearly all verbs can be negated with 不. The verb 有 is an exception, and must be negated with 没.
Subject + 没 + 有 + Object
Examples
- 我 没 有 手机。
- 他 没 有 多少 钱。
- 我们 没 有 自己的 房子。
Remember that trying to negate 有 with 不 is a classic mistake that many people make in the early stages of studying Chinese:
- 我 不 有 汽车。
- 我 没 有 汽车。
Never use 不 with 有.
