Selling a Home? Try the Ancient Art of Feng Shui

With market conditions being what they are and houses sitting on the market longer, many people are turning to the Ancient art of Feng Shui to sell a home. Both Realtors and Homeowners alike are trying this and some are seeing astounding results.

For many years people have believed in the Power of St. Joseph Statues, buried in the backyard (upside-down) to make their homes sell and many still use this method as well. But with the new consciousness of Energy, more and more people are turning to Feng Shui Methods to help sell a home.

Everything around us is Energy. We are surrounded by it every single day by every single place that we occupy. Have you noticed that some homes just “FEEL” better then others? Although they may be similar in both location, price and amenities, one may just have a different feeling to it that draws us in.

Feng Shui is literally translated to mean “Wind/Water” and its methods seek to change the energy flow in a space to a positive one; to make a home feel warm and inviting and give it a sense of peace and harmony. Often times Realtors will work with Feng Shui Consultants to get that home off the market and get those moving trucks moving.

Feng Shui adjustments do not need to be expensive. We believe in the thought process as well so present owners need to Intentionally “let go” of their home before it can sell. What might be some of the adjustments a Feng Shui Consultant might use to achieve the goal of selling a home? We first look at the outside “forces” : Street energy, T Junctions and Cul de Sacs can be addressed easily and inexpensively with mirrors. The Front door, also know as “The Mouth of Chi” is also very important, it is considered to be the place where all good energy enters. A good pathway to the front door, a fresh coat of paint, a welcome sign are all wonderful additions.

Inside we seek to instill a good flow of Energy in the home. Using the furniture that is presently there, we may often rearrange it to allow the energy to flow smoothly through the space. Changing the energy flow has a deep and profound impact on people as it’s what helps instill positive feelings that we can create in a home. We also look at the Five Elements. Color selections and lighting to achieve a feeling of harmony and balance that draws new occupants IN and makes them want to stay there.

One thing that is often not discussed quite often in Feng Shui that absolutely helps clear a home of the old and stuck energy and infuses it with new energy are blessings. They are non-denominational and rid the home and the grounds of any negative energy from former occupants or anything that occurs on the land.

Remember, there’s a reason why some homes seem to reach out to you and you just “have to have it” because you’ve fallen in love; and that reason may very well be Feng Shui!
