Kentucky Real Estate | I’m waiting til prices go down…

Your New Kentucky Home

Your New Kentucky Home

Are you waiting for the prices to drop more?  They probably will.   But, consider this, there will be more foreclosures, and this will place more homes on the market.  The more houses available, the cheaper  they will be as sellers try to entice buyers to their property.  It’s simple supply and demand economics.  When the world is covered in gold, the value of gold will be less.  When gold is rare, it’s priced higher.  

 This would seem to be a good thing for shoppers, but here’s the catch…looks like about April 1st the government will allow the interest rates to rise and we’ll see the interest rates go up substantially and quickly.

So, here’s the thing…you might get a better price on a house, but it will have to be a lot to make up what you’ll be spending on the higher interest rate.  Unless of course, you have the cash to buy what you want without worrying about the interest.  In that case, lucky you!

Feng Shui This | Creek in My Back Yard

Kentucky Creek

Kentucky Creek

So, you have a creek in your back yard…or you want one!  What does feng shui have to say about that?

Usually in feng shui we want the water to be out in front and a sturdy mountain of some sort out back.  This is the armchair principal that compares a house to a comfortable chair.  You have a nice, secure high back, two stuffed arms to protect your sides, and a beautiful view out front.

But, sometimes that beautiful view is out back.  Well, with flying star feng shui we consider the energies coming to the house as determined by the date the house was built, the way it was built, and the degree of the facing.  So, if your flying star chart shows good, vibrant water stars out back…then it’s a great place for a creek.  If not…well, usually we can find a way to fix the problem.  In the meantime, enjoy the view.
