House Number

[myfs_115707]

I'm sorry if this has been asked b4 as i am fairly new to this website. I'm in the process of buying a house and the house I really like happens to be number 4. Now we all know most Chinese don't like it especially the Cantonese. If I'm not mistaken I read somewhere in your report the number 4 is quite auspicious but I can never find it again. Canyou pls confirm it one more time for me? Thanks and regards, - Jessie.

Whether a house number is auspicious or not is really an individual preference.

4 in cantonese sounds like the word die. So to most Chinese, they would probably avoid it as fair as possible. This might have some future implications especially when you do later want to sell the home.

However, again there are also lots of people who do not bother about it and/or to them 4 is their lucky number. So to these people, it doesn't matter to them at all. ie 4 leave clover is considered lucky. It contains 4 also but not really bad for this case.

Ultimately, whether or not a home is really auspicious depends on the layout and external environment of the house. The house number is good to have if it is a nice number, but won't really directly affect your home luck except for when it comes to selling it later. As there will be certainly a number of people who will be put off by the number 4.

Hope that helps.
