8 Feng Shui Tips For Selling a Lived-In Home!


Feng shui is an ancient Chinese practice that involves arranging your environment in a way that promotes harmony, balance, and positive energy. When it comes to staging a home for sale, using principles of feng shui can help create a welcoming and inviting atmosphere that potential buyers will find attractive. Here are some tips on how to use feng shui to stage your home:



  1. Start by decluttering and getting rid of any unnecessary items. This will help create a sense of openness and spaciousness, which is important in feng shui.

  2. Pay attention to the flow of energy, or "chi," in your home. This can be achieved by creating a clear path from the front door to the back of the house, and by removing any obstacles that might block the flow of chi.

  3. Use color to your advantage. In feng shui, different colors are associated with different elements and energies. For example, red is associated with fire and passion, while green is associated with wood and growth. Choose colors that are calming and neutral, such as beige, white, and light blue.

  4. Incorporate natural elements into your staging. Wood, plants, and stone can all help bring a sense of nature into your home and create a more harmonious energy.

  5. Focus on the entrance to your home. In feng shui, the front door is considered the "mouth of chi," so it's important to make sure it is well-maintained and inviting. Add a fresh coat of paint, a new doormat, and some potted plants to make a good first impression.

  6. Use mirrors to your advantage. Mirrors can help reflect light and create the illusion of more space, making your home feel brighter and more welcoming.

  7. Add some personal touches. While it's important to keep your home looking neutral for potential buyers, adding a few personal touches can help make it feel more welcoming. Consider adding some artwork, or other personal items to give the space a sense of warmth and character.

  8. Pay attention to the bedroom. In feng shui, the bedroom is considered a very important space, as it is where you rest and recharge. Make sure the bed is in a commanding position and avoid placing it under a window or in front of a door.
