Dear Kewpie,

1. It is very difficult to comment on the `generic' term, a townhouse.

This is because, it also depends on the location it is sited, the plot of land holding the row of houses.

The elevation, the front, the back areas in relation to Shapes and Form.

2. Personally, I have also purchased a townhouse unit, two years back and now it is nearly ready for occupation.

What I did, to take advanage is, to looking at the Flying Star, using the Good House program which Robert specifically developed, mainly for our own use, to locate the best house amongst one of the town house.

3. We had an advantage because speed was essential in such a situation. We used our program to search for a good house.

The report narrowed our search to several units. Here, we found a Double 7 house and it is the second unit next to the one at one end of (from the row).

We thus use over combined theory of Shapes and Form, Flying Star and Eight house to gain us a competitive advantage.

4. As I mentioned earlier, it is always best to get a correct house (if possible) first round. This would give one a quantum leap and aid us in our `Earth Luck'.

In fact, once this is done, I do not even normally need to do a Feng Shui audit for myself. And, the luck will usually hold true.

Furthermore, I avoided getting a house with missing corners.

5. If it is a row of townhouse, again I must emphaise:

5.1. Check the location of the toilet. Since it is a new house, why let it cause problems.

5.2 For a townhouse, do check that Qi does not flow a straight path as usually, this is one of the major considerations since windows cannot be located on either all four sides of the house or three sides.

Being human, if I do see an excellent unit, I will not hesitate to purchase it especially to stay or rent out.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
