Top 9 Feng Shui Tips to Sell Your Home:

1. Ensure there is no clutter in front of your house - on your lawn, porch, your part of the sidewalk.

2. Plant bright and colourful flowers on your lawn to attract positive ch'i (energy); if it's winter, add bright holiday lights to your house or bushes.

3. Make sure that everything that should be working is working -for example, clocks, alarm system, doorbell, etc.; otherwise, ch'i stagnates and creates negative energy.

4. Hang a Feng Shui crystal in your front entrance to increase the flow of energy in your home.

5. Spacial clearing: also known as "smuding", this is the process to clear away stagnant energy and invite in fresh new energy. This process is best performed by a qualified practitioner, but you can perform this yourself by spraying essential oils (lavender forexample) in every room and every corner of your home.

6. Keep your home spotless (including cabinets, cupboards, closets) during showings.

7. Ensure that your house number is clean and clearly visible from the street.

8. If you have many doors, you are lucky; multiple entrances = multiple opportunities.

9. Visualize your intentions in 9 steps and write them down - it works!
