My fengshui master told me for an irregular shape apartments (one with alot of odd angles) its "fire" in nature and for pple whose ba zhi does not complement fire, the occupants will be bad tempered and quarrelsome....
I have view an apartments where the masterbed is placed directly opposite the toilet and that the owner have installed a sliding "feature" wall to conceal it, not sure if its driven by fengshui though...

fengshui is all in our mind
i only noe tat my temper gets hot together wif the weather......if ur house r cooler and breezier....den less hot tempered u will be:2cents: :D
If you believe in fengshui there will be no end to it. Every house will have some favourable and unfavourable aspects. And you will have to take professional advice for everyone in the house with respect to where they sleep, where they study etc etc. The more you consult and read, the more your mind will be taken up by these fengshui matters and it can threaten to take over your life and you will run your life by the FS master. So consider if you want to take on their beliefs or not. It will be almost like a "religion". If you are serious, then please consult a FS master regarding these matters. Don't rely on us forum members or you may get wrong or inappropriate advice.

imagine u got a big family.....how isit possible to find a ppty tat suits all family members....FSM will say must buy these and tat and do these and tat to 'counter' the effect blah blah....
to me, FSM is the biggest conman.....i even heard rumours about agts tipping FSM to recommend their units to clients who believe in FS....:doh:
no offend to FS believers....jus not my cup of tea:D

My feedback is just my 2 cents worth...certainly there are believers vs. non believers...
Rule is not to let fengshui impact your life in impractical ways, it meant to enhance and not rule your life...
Is there any house nos. that people should avoid?
I used to think #04-04 is a lousy number but was told by my agent that there are some people who actually asked specifically for this number so I guess there is no lousy unit number any more. Crap to some but treasure to others! :D
Ai yoh, those you met are FS con-man is it?
My FSM said where got a property must suit all family members? A good FS house is good for everybody, not just for somebody of some ba zi. Example, got face West direct sun property good FS one for some people mah? Some people need and will benefit from the West Sun heat without air-con meh? :p
Please be careful and get a good FSM (there are many con-men around).

This has nothing to do with FS, but more to do with superstition. :D

Actually, some FS advice are just logical general knowledge.
For example, not installing aircon blower above the toilet door in the master bedroom. This is not encouraged as toilets are often the place with the most germs, moisture and of course, stench from all the natural 'businesses'. By putting the blower above the door, you run the risk of circulating the germs, stench and all in the bedroom.:)
Bad fengshui can be used as an excuse to avoid being labelled a property trader. So capital gains will not be regarded as income.
Actually some sunshine into the house is good to kill germs and prevent molds. Best if your toilet windows and yard area kena west sun.
Some design of the apartments with windows on opposite directions also good, can promote air circulation. If you notice most recent designs all the windows of the unit face the same direction, how can wind blow into the house?
This has nothing to do with FS, but more to do with superstition. :DIts a thin line betw fs and superstition. To you its superstition but when I visited HK, numbers are part of their fs culture too, and we know how deeply entrenched in FS are the HK people! :spliff: Sometimes, that line is blurred! :D

Listening to FSM can really make yr pty selection and renovations a night-mare. It is not always possible to change certain things in the house and then you will worry that it has negative impact on yr family. And then you will end up buying all sorts of weird ornaments to counter the "bad" feng shui. I think unless you are going to embrace it whole-heartedly it's better not to consult FSM and better not to know. Then you can go about yr house hunting and renovations in peace and not worrying about this and that. In the end make yr pty agent's life and yr contractor's life and yr own life so much stress to get everything in the "right" orientation for all family members. If you are one or two persons maybe can still manage but to get the conditions that suit the ba-zi of 4/5/6 or more family members, it will be a great challenge.
And if you want more than one opinion from different FSM, you could end up with different recommendations and then you will end up confused, which is the "right" one and worry that you chose the "wrong" combination. And if anything goes wrong with yr life, you will be attributing it to the feng shui or yr "wrong" choice of FSM.
How to know which FSM recommendations are good???

My dad went to Shanghai to 'invite' (and so I was told, not bring) some prosperity deity back but after 5 years, business still not picking up. Not much change! He usually goes to 'donate' money to the casinos, both in Malaysia and Singapore! People will then say coz he did something wrong, blar blar blar! Who is right or who is wrong? No way to verify! No end to argument!
When things go right, you say FSM very good and accurate! When things don't work out, you say you did something wrong! Sure have excuses and explanations to everything! Sorry but no offences to anybody! :D
I engaged a FSM and he say within 1 yr will strike lottery/4D if according to his placement. The placements are not bad, very practical actually.
So, last month , my dad bought 4d and strike 1st prize and claim $34k.
But hor... the number is the car number 8814. Not the house number.
So, i think the better fengshui master is my car salesman in mercs.
hehe...
But then hor.. if the fsm gives good suggestion and practical advice, no harm putting it. Just do away with those crazy ideas like tilting your main door or shifting the stove etc.
If I'm not wrong, there's a 10 yrs cycle for fengshui also. Our life still depends on our destiny. Fengshui is to enhance it only. I believe in FS but not 100%.
If your toilet door is facing the bedroom door, I think the best solution is to close the toilet door. My son's bedroom is also directly facing the toilet and I have the toilet door half close most of the time because if you close it completely, then I'm afraid that the air in the toilet might be very still.
I have a friend who is a fengshui master but this is not his main job. He told me about a few of his cases that he had come across and I was amazed at how FS do the miracles. I believe in him because I have known him for more than 20 yrs, and he is quite a modest and helpful person. Get the true FS master because some of them are actually conman which I had encountered before. Wasting money, wasting time.
What you said is a bit like sticking head in sand. FS will not disappear just because of that. In fact when you renovate, that is the best time to correct the FS (knock down some walls, change doors location etc).
FS is independent of your ba zi.
Get the real FSM is most important.

HK don't rep Fengshui. Lots of FS con-men everywhere. The 4 being bad must have been the most entrenched superstition of all by HK people. Pure superstition :doh:

Then, the unit has good facing, pool view, etc. Just the number inauspicious...
But in the end, I was not convinced since have better choices. For me, I only embrace FS where it is practicable, sensible and logical.

Get the real FSM is most important. Agree, with regards to Ba zi, quite hard to find a property where FS suits all members of the house, unless design and build from scratch, say for landed. Agree that best time to embrace FS is when want to renovate, becos then can adopt FS and enhance/ compensate for members of family whose Ba Zi and FS of existing property is not ideal. But I would not let FS dictate the design of the Reno or house but if can make minor adjustments to incorporate, then ok.
Do developers take FS into consideration when they embark on an housing project? I know for a fact that some commercial buildings were constructed with FS considerations, especially financial buildings!

Agreed. FS or not, the games are designed to give the house a slight edge. The slot machines are programmed. This is not FS. This is science.
Perhaps I should go study to be a FSM. Can earn more than in my current job. And no need a Uni degree either.

It is rigorously proven by probability calculation. I think the lousiest bet for Casino is the big/small game when chances of winning is 50%-50%. All other games are configured for casinos to gain bigger winning %.
I remembered years ago a group of MIT students studied the casinos and devised a winning strategy. They were highly successful then but ever since their strategy was exposed, there are now rules by casinos to ensure that they continue to maintain the upper edge! :D FS? Don't think so! :scared-4:

To me, I think that number beginning or ending with 4 does not mean that it is inauspicious to everybody. It depends on individual destiny. Everybody has their own lucky numbers and lucky directions.

rich and successful r usually confident and optismistic lot....the opposite is vy true too
i'm not superstitous, but if no 4 means a significant discount, i'll take it.

It's interesting that some of you will look purely at the number and not the attirbutes of the unit. So if Stack 8 and worse facing, you'll still pay more than stack 4 with better facing, and no need to think.
Anyway, it's up to the individuals how superstitious they are. I think if you're comfortable with yourself and confident that u bought a good units at a good price, then I believe one shouldn't be too worried about the stack number. But I guess, not everyone is the same. If buying a stack 4 gives u nightmares everyday, then obviously it's not worth it.
From my observation, only developer's sales makes a difference. You would be surprised in the resale market, hardly any difference because supply is scarce for some projects -and the buyer cannot "choose" or "wait" for auspicious numbers.

not a fair statement...
let say same stack but 4th flr and 5th flr or even 8th flr left....which one u choose if prices only 4-5k difference for every level up?

Not everybody is so sensitve to the number 4. If number 4 is really that bad, then all the HDB & private ppty (district/block/unit no) with such numbers will be left empty. Of course, if have a choice, people will try to avoid number 4 but there are also people who purposely choose this number, I ever saw a car plate on the road with "4444".

from my googling, cant find any conclusive studies on substation within our condos....
it all depends on the voltage and amps? how to check how much voltage a particular condo substation is producing? wats the guideline which is within the healthy/safe range for humans?

Do you know when the main door is facing the side of the lift, does it cause any hazard to the health because lift has high magnetic field? I come across 1 of the FS talk, he said install a stainless steel 铁门 to block the magnetic field.
i have been observing this lately. The developers are getting smart with unit 4. It is usually the smallest unit or the one with the worst facing. Generally the least preferred unit, so as not the screw up the potential of their better units.....

Substation generates magnetic field when stepping voltages from high to low. Hence, it may not be good for people and there are lots of research findings on health effect from overheads high tension cables.I'm unsure of the reports but I understand that magnetic field is commonly used in medical field and even installed in beds to enhance blood circulation.:tsk-tsk:
The overheads high tension cables are designed to reduce the current flowing in those cables and with a low current, the magnetic field generated around those cables is generally weak so might not be very accurate to say overhead high tensio cables have high magnetic influences on people. However, there might well be some truth in the substation as strong magnetic field is produced in stepping down of voltage.
From my observation, only developer's sales makes a difference. You would be surprised in the resale market, hardly any difference because supply is scarce for some projects -and the buyer cannot "choose" or "wait" for auspicious numbers. I know of a unit #04-04 from an old condo (resale) that could not sell for more than a year. I was so tempted to take it until I realised the unit number and feared for the resale value in future. Although I don't mind, I mind that others mind so no choice have to let go!!! :doh:

U buy cheaper, u sell cheaper lor. Anyway, fengshui is a very subjective thing lah. If u believe in it, then just do it. No point buying something and then everyday lose sleep. So I think all these fengshui discussion is moot. If u believe in it, then just engage fengshui master and buy all the auspicious numbers. If u dun, then buy less auspicious numbers and can still make money.
And the silliest thing is to compare 8th floor with 4th floor and say there is a difference. Becos 8th floor is higher than 4th floor lah. U can only compare different stacks - whether stack 8 always fetch a premium price. For resale, I can tell u, sometimes no difference.

The medium tension cable has to be step down to 415V before it can distribution to condo in 3 phase (3 live wires: red, yellow and blue plus black (neutral)). Each household will receive a 240V which is combination of either red and black, yellow and black or blue and black. People in the UK is suing the garment for having cancer becos of the overhead HT cable above their house.
from my googling, cant find any conclusive studies on substation within our condos....
it all depends on the voltage and amps? how to check how much voltage a particular condo substation is producing? wats the guideline which is within the healthy/safe range for humans?
Are you referring to ultrasonic wave? Like ultrascan for foetus in the mother's womb.
I'm unsure of the reports but I understand that magnetic field is commonly used in medical field and even installed in beds to enhance blood circulation.:tsk-tsk:
The overheads high tension cables are designed to reduce the current flowing in those cables and with a low current, the magnetic field generated around those cables is generally weak so might not be very accurate to say overhead high tensio cables have high magnetic influences on people. However, there might well be some truth in the substation as strong magnetic field is produced in stepping down of voltage.

so meaning? dun choose unit next to substation within a condo development? den how far away is safe enough?
Not worth it even it is cheaper. Difficult to sell later.

I know of two new landed properties that are not sold becos they are next to the substation. If they have choices around there, they will take it.

U can find Feng Shui books in Popular bookshop by Joey Yap.

Extracts:
"Pesky pylons
Many people, even those who are not into feng shui, will refuse to buy a house near pylon. Now, the common fallacy is that pylons are a sharp object and thus are a bad feng shui.
Like I have said in the past, sharp is not the sale criteria to determine good or bad.
Generally, pylons are not a favorable feature to have near your home but cannot say as a blanket rule that a pylon is always bad.
So in what instances is at a problem to have a pylon near your house?
Firstly, if it is very near your property, then a pylon is a problem. By neat, I mean it is within immediate proximity (around 500 meters) of your house. Secondly, look at which sector it is located in. if it is in the East Sector for example, then at is affecting Zhen Gua.
The Zhen Gua trigram among other things relates to the eldest son. So if your family consists entirely of girls, then this pylon is not a major case for concern. See how sneeringly scary Sha Qi can turn out to be not scary after all?
A Sha Qi feature like a pylon is only a cause for concern if the Gua of the sector tells you that someone in that house is likely to be affected by the negative feature in that sector.
If someone who lives in the house is affected, then you have a problem. If the Sha Qi affects a non-existent resident (like an eldest son in a family full of girls), then the problem is not major. Finally, pylons are regarded as Fire element, so if it is located in a sector that is suitable for a Fire element, the pylon is not dangerous or negative.
In feng shui, besides the forms in the environment, and the dynamic nature of Qi, we must also consider the residents of the property, the people using the house.
If there's a flu bug going around, but you have the flu shot, you probably don't need to be scared. Similarly, if a type of Sha Qi is present, but doesn't affect any of the residents, it's not a big deal."

looks like landed buyers r more choosy....buying landed its an ART
Landed is very different from condos. It is best to buy old one and reconstruct it.

i have been observing this lately. The developers are getting smart with unit 4. It is usually the smallest unit or the one with the worst facing. Generally the least preferred unit, so as not the screw up the potential of their better units.....
Anyone observed this too?:beats-me-man:
I think the developer should build in such a way that Unit 4 should have a better view because some people might prefer to have a better view than to worry about the No 4.
If the view is no good plus the unit no. is 4, we can imagine how will the sales like?:tsk-tsk:
There is a corner landed at Chuan Villa that have not been sold for a very long time till now. Some say that house has bad fengshui due to its triangular plot of land. :beats-me-man:
