佳居锦囊：基本风水贴士辨识好房子
风水好坏对于房地产增值有着一定的影响，且让我们来看看有哪些基本的风水要素是你在置产时该注意的。 大门 大门是一间房子中最重要的部分，因为这里是气的入口。你只需要站在大门前往外看，就可以知道那间房子产值不值得投资。 若你能从大门看见任何街灯或是高耸的建筑，就会形成穿心煞的情况。这样的风水格局不利于居住者的健康和事业。如果这些都没有出现在你的视线范围，那就可以放心了。 厨房 厨房代表健康和生命，假如设计不当，便会影响建康。 厨房应该位于房子的侧边，而不是中间，以免为居住者带来长期健康问题。灶炉也不宜面向厨房入口，较好的方向应是在转角的地方。 卧房 我们日常生活里，有三分之一的时间都是在睡觉。 因此，卧房是影响房产价值的关键之一。和厨房一样，卧室是不应该位于一些奇怪的角落，因为这会导致太多的阴气聚集在卧室里。 另外，卧室应该是四角形的，这样才能够聚集更多的气，为健康与事业带来好运。 马路 好的房地产一般远离繁忙和喧哗的大马路，假如通往房子的道路是一条弯弯曲曲的道路，这会切断通往该房产的气场。 然而，如果你的房子正好面向大家都觉得可怕的三岔路口，其实不必太担心，你可以在家门前种一些树来化解不好的气场。 以上的这些小贴士是一些基本参考，若想知道更多，请点此阅读更多Joey Yap的家居风水贴士。 原文已刊登在2016年11月18日的TheEdgeProperty.
