real estate: What Happens To The Energy Of My Home If I Do Not Use All The Rooms?
- 06/22/15 11:11 PM
What Happens To The Energy Of My Home If I Do Not Use All The Rooms? This is a great question and common in rural areas, such as Long Island NY vs. urban settings in Brooklyn, Queens and New York City. Feng Shui takes into consideration the function of each room, as well as the atmosphere, arrangement of the space, goal and challenges of each client. If you come across rooms that lack occupation due to x, y or z reasons, it's suggested to "stage" the room as if it were being used. Let's take a guest room for example. That space may not always be in use,

- 04/19/15 01:03 PM
Feng Shui Real Estate Development Tip: Front Entrance Water Element Adding simple Feng Shui enhancements to the design concepts of a real estate development can be very beneficial to enhancing sales for residential and commercially utilized buildings.

This is also beneficial for those occupying

real estate: Feng Shui for Real Estate Developers: Electrical Towers and Homes
- 04/12/15 12:23 AM
Feng Shui for Real Estate Developers: Electrical Towers and Homes Above is an image of electrical towers constructed near homes. In Feng Shui it's strongly suggested not to build residential structures near these towers because science is providing evidence of the negative impact they have on our health. On a smaller scale such as with computers, cell phones, and wires, that we are surrounded by can cause headaches, anxiety, the feeling of stress, problems sleeping, lack of focus, migraines, and even lower our immunes system. If small appliances can do that, imagine what a larger structure of electro magnetic frequencies can do. This

'Feng Shui Contingency' May be Included into Your Real Estate Report Feng Shui is no longer a fad, a trend or a luxury, it's becoming a necessity in America and around the world. The National Association of Realtors have been posting reports about New York City, Seattle, and California not being the only locations fusing Feng Shui into their existing and developing structures. Feng Shui is expanding into other developing cities across America such as in Detroit, Philadelphia, Huston, Chicago, Las Vegas, Atlanta, San Diego, and Memphis.

Suzanne makes a good point about having balance in design and staging of a home. Feng Shui practice dictates that art of placement is about balance and energy flow and each position carries significance with how our lives might be impacted in subtle ways. Thanks, Suzanne! Love and light, Laura Home Staging is All About Balance Being a Montgomery county PA home stager has its challenges.

real estate: Is Feng Shui Relevant to the Real Estate Market?
- 02/13/14 06:28 AM
Is Feng Shui Relevant to the Real Estate Market? I received a call and was asked an interesting question, " Is Feng Shui Relevant to the Real Estate Market." My response, Absolutely and it's a very good idea for Real Estate Agents and Brokers to at least learn the foundations of Feng Shui. Understanding the key principles and why people follow this life style will give you insights into what their expectations are when utilizing Feng Shui for moving into a home and understand who to market the service to more efficiently. Collaborating with a Feng Shui Expert when needed is a great resource. A Feng Shui

real estate: What is Your Success Rate?
- 11/29/13 09:42 PM
I have had clients, friends and even family ask me, "What is Your Success Rate?" I had never thought of my past clients in terms of a scale or tape measure, and even if I had, would never be able to "graph" their success rate? Taking it a step further while thinking about it later, would it have meant my success in inspiring them to actually make the suggested changes? Or being able to give them other perspectives so they can start to look at their lives and situations differently and begin to change into a different way of thinking? I

real estate: Could Feng Shui Help or Hurt a Home for Sale?
- 11/15/13 12:01 AM
Could Feng Shui Help or Hurt a Home for Sale? For years I have been speaking to individual Real Estate offices to explain the benefits of Feng Shui and realized I had not walked into one office where at LEAST one of the agents hadn’t heard about a Feng Shui consultant ruining a sale for them. Even though its been over 25 years since Feng Shui has made its presence known in America, there is still so much being mis-communicated about this practice. Feng shui is not to be a Fear based method of teaching and if any consultant presents

real estate: My CLIENT Just Saved Me $1,000!! by Feng Shui Long Island & New York City
- 07/01/08 03:59 PM
And she doesn't even KNOW it, yet! I am so grateful that I go on to become true friends with so many of my clients and this particular one is no exception. About two months ago I did a Feng Shui Consultation at her beautiful home in lovely Long Island, New York. It is a very upscale town and the homes are spectacular. My client wanted to focus first on career. Having left her old position (and accumulating several degrees in the interim), she felt that she would like to return to work. It is a very specialized field and I'd

real estate: There's nothing Nicer then these Emails: In Feng Shui AND REAL ESTATE!
- 06/28/07 06:40 PM
There IS nothing nicer then getting a call or email from anyone you are working with to thank you and let you know that what you did helped them. It's even nicer when it's from an Activerain Realtorwho had found me and contacted me about Feng Shui. I am not going to reveal who this person is, that would be entirely up to them but I did get a contact from Activerain from someone who had stumbled on one of my posts on Feng Shui and we spoke on the phone. She had already taken Suzee Miller's online course on Feng Shui

real estate: How many Homes do you REMEMBER? A common thread for Activerainers Feng Shui Long Island
- 06/05/07 12:17 PM
I received a call today which got me thinking. There is a common thread between all people on Activerain and that is the obvious; we are in and out of people's homes. Over and over again, year after year. The call was from a client I had done last summer and he didn't remember or have in his notes the color I had suggested for the office he was going to convert from a bedroom that was no longer needed. I wondered how I could possibly remember that and stopped and thought. When I am in homes, I study them. For different

real estate: Did you Choose your Profession? Or did IT choose YOU?? How many of you can say you LOVE what you Do?
- 05/21/07 02:04 PM
Many of us I believe from reading the wonderful MEME'sthat are posted have had many career changes during their lifetimes. While some have had more then others, being on the Activerain Community has made me wonder if you truly LOVED the work you are doing now? It is something you fell into or is it something, perhaps without reason, that you felt DRAWN to and decided to pursue? Despite the difficulties you have encountered (or are Still encountering), you know and feel THIS is what you were meant to do? Or is it a "stepping stone" to something that moves you closer
