HOW TO
Feng Shui is a Chinese system of beliefs that govern spatial arrangement in relation to the flow of energy or “life force” (known as chi or qi) in a building. Learn how to appeal to buyers who follow such principles.
Chi
flows in.
Pay special attention to the front door, which is considered the “mouth of chi”
and one of the most powerful aspects of the entire property. Make sure the area
is swept clean and free of cobwebs and clutter. Ensure all lighting is straight
and properly hung. Consider lighting the path leading up to the front door to
create an inviting atmosphere.
Chi
can flow out, too.
Energy can be flushed away wherever there are drains in the home. To keep the
good forces of a home inside, always keep the toilet seats down and close the
doors to bathrooms.
Consider
the bedroom carefully.
The master bed should be in a place of honor, power, and protection. Place it farthest
from and facing toward the entryway of the room. The optimal placement is
diagonal in the farthest corner of the room. Paint the room in colors that
promote serenity, relaxation, and romance, such as soft tones of green, blue,
and lavender.
Offer
a formal dining space.
The dining room symbolizes the energy and power of family togetherness. Make
sure the table is clear and uncluttered during showings. Use an attractive
tablecloth to enhance the look of the table while also softening sharp corners.
Get
a clear perspective.
Windows are considered to be the eyes of the home. Getting your windows
professionally cleaned is a good idea anyway, but for buyers, your home will sparkle
all the more brightly and your view will be optimally displayed.
