Dear Nancy,

1. I have looked thru the photo & layout you sent to my email account.

2. Overall, your plot of land is not an ideal shape. Units 5402 and 5401 are at a `T' junction and for these two units at the end of the road, preferably the main doors should not be in direct alignment to the road.

Your home and the opposite house (5408) plus units 5402 and 5401 are in a configuration "close to" the Yang Zhai Shi Shu where three houses `meet'. This is considered a `bad' layout (not "fatal" but bad) in that it signifies `family will not be rich'.

3. The above is based on a three house layout. But with the four house layout, it looks similar to the above. Hopefully, it would not be the same.

4. I have seen the picture of your frontage of the house. It pose no problems as the main door is well `hidden' from any poison arrows.

Please see below:-

Yes, do start slow with Feng Shui. Nothing could be worse than doing all the wrong things or spending unnecessary money and this may not bear fruit.

It would not be advisable to place a wind chime unless, you personally liked it and not becaues of Feng Shui justification.

With your `four house' configuration, more care should be placed in using the wrong Feng Shui.

Warmest Regards,
