Infusing the principles of Feng Shui into your home or business provides an opportunity to enhance the harmony and productivity of your space. Design for Energy has been helping realtors and homeowners in the Austin area incorporate Feng Shui principles to move homes more quickly in the real estate market. CEO and founder, Belinda Mendoza, put together a short clip on how she channels her passion for Feng Shui to help homeowners and realtors.
Some general tips for realtors or homeowners looking to sell:
- The fewer personal possessions and clutter lying around the house, the better. Personal possessions anchor the home’s energy to the current dwellers, making it a less attractive option for buyers. For example, a buyer can much more easily visualize the potential of an empty or organized garage verses one that is packed full of belongings and clutter. Get organized, declutter and remove junk to sell a home faster or improve the energy in your home.
- Arrange the furniture in pathways that promote smooth navigation. When you can easily walk between rooms and furniture, a sense of comfort and welcome will prevail. If furniture is poorly placed buyers and guests alike can feel cramped or claustrophobic.
- Ensure that you have both good, natural light and quality air in your home to harness the positive feng shui energy, called chi. Open the windows often to introduce fresh air into your home. Plants or an air purifier will also help keep your home feeling fresh. Allow as much natural light as possible into your home to create a bright and inviting atmosphere.
