Feng Shui in Athens

Feng Shui in Athens may sound Greek to you but it’s really Georgia. Feng shui is spreading throughout the United States, especially in the Southern region where bamboo and kudzu are abundant.

In 1999, an article published on Online Athens revealed the first authentic feng shui home built in Athens, Georgia. The home of Sandi and Daniel Smith was built with the guidance of Feng Shui master and practitioner, Dr. Weicherng Pan. Within the past short 10 year period, feng shui has become more and more recognized and used in interior home designs. One of the most recent embracers of this art of form and placement is the real estate industry.

It has only been 10 years since the Smith home construction was guided by using feng shui principles, but the use of feng shui has continued to grow throughout Georgia with many interior designers and decorators using feng shui applications in their design practices. There are various certification programs available learn techniques and other important placement tips for creating a better home interior and exterior.

Many home staging businesses have incorporated feng shui application to their practices. They conduct feng shui analyses for clients’ homes and based on the results offer changes, recommendations and even feng shui cures. In fact, one of the latest and most beneficial marketing tools in real estate is to advertise a home as having been feng shui designed. Of course, your home needs to actually be designed using feng shui principles or potential home buyers will be disappointed and you’ll lose the sale.

You can’t simply add a water feature to the outside of your home and then claim it to be feng shui designed. You need to hire a professional feng shui master, practitioner or consultant to conduct a proper analysis of your home and then present the recommendations for feng shui cures and changes.

What qualifies a home as feng shui designed? There are all kinds of levels and degrees of depth when using feng shui and applying the principles in order to design your home. There are also several schools of feng shui. Not every feng shui practitioner practices the same schools of feng shui. Many western consultants opt for the shortened version of the Black Hat Sect, so be sure and ask which schools of feng shui the consultant practices.

If you wish to have an advantage over other homes currently on the market, then undertaking the expense of hiring a professional feng shui consultant to assist you will prove the best investment you’ve ever made in marketing a home.
