Home Selling Superstition
There is extensive advice for those wishing to sell a home. My advice usually involves market research, plumbing repair and paint color occasional debate. However, the advice provided by family or friends is always a source of concern to me.
There is always a common belief that the scent can sell a house. I agree that bad odor, even against the best bargain in the market. But does it really make a difference to the property have a sweet smell, like bread or crackers? As the daughter of a compulsive baker, I think that a cookie can mitigate any good public relations. However, a condominium can be sold by smell alone? My conclusion is that insurance can not hurt. Especially if they are baked goods to the left to visit agents.
I once had a home buyer to assess properties based on the principles of Feng Shui. This is the Chinese art of organizing your surroundings to attract positive energy. Argues that good Feng Shui can boost the life in the areas of health, career, love and marriage and even wealth. Much of the positive aspects of Feng Shui for advice makes good passes too. To increase wealth, it is recommended to add flowering plants along the walkway (preferably red), remove clutter, keep clean the burners of the stove, light and door way to you, keep the plants alive left corner and never have too small furniture. Feng Shui sounds like good advice good advice for selling myself.
The statue of St. Joseph is a long held superstition property. San Jose Catholic saint was appointed in late 1800. Among other things, he is the patron against doubt and hesitation. And the legend says that he can help sell your home. Just buy a 4-inch tall statue of San Jose for about $ 9.95 and buried in the backyard. Should be buried near the street sign for the sale and must be left there for 3 days. After three days have passed, the buyer must be at your door offering hand. Once San José has sold his house to be dug up and kept in a position of respect. There is no evidence that San Jose can offer some protection against bad checks, poor funding or title issues. Therefore, perhaps, a real estate agent is needed after all.
In any case, the process of selling a home is often a difficult and stressful, even for the most patient of vendors. If cookies and flowers and patron saints can calm your nerves and satisfy buyers who may hesitate are actually good advice.
