Tap Into Your Property's Metaphysical Energy To Ensure Fast Sale
Those of you who know me, have done business with me, or even read this blogsite from time to time will probaby agree that I'm usually a pretty well-rounded guy with roots based in reality. I don't come up with wild ideas, undertake oddball excursions or hold fast to any weird fantasies that fly in the face of reality.
Normal. Plain vanilla. That's me.
So, when it comes to selling real estate, you can bet that I'm going to use the tried-n-true marketing approaches that I know have worked in the past, believe will work now, and are most likely going to work in the future.
Sounds pretty reasonable to me.
Well, reason has different meanings to different people. Over the years, I've learned some things about selling real estate that, at first glance anyway, may seem pretty unreasonable. Like burying a statue of St. Joseph in the seller's back yard. Or showing a house based on the ancient Chinese design philosophy of Feng Shui. Or de-cluttering a house using the principles of vaastu shastra where we focus on design and simplification of the environment as they do in far away India. Frankly, I don't have any problem at all with these approaches since they are religious and cultural in nature and are believed to the core by many people who were raised in those lands and hold to those beliefs.
Recently, however, something new has come along for sellers trying to find buyers in a soft market. Somehow, I don't think I'm going to find much proof for the success of this approach in any marketing texts, unless it is under the chapter called "Alternative Approaches".
Sellers and their agents are now being advised to tap into a property's metaphysical energy -- to develop a relationship, if you will, with the property's soul.
Folks, I honestly don't know if houses and condos and duplexes and apartment buildings have souls. And I'm not quite sure how to tap into that soulful energy.
According to practitioners of this metaphysical approach to selling real estate, everything has a soul and that soul gives off energy -- TV's, furniture, cars, you name it. Kind of think of this "energy" as "vibes". People can pick up on these vibes using their intuition. If the house is giving off negative energy, it won't sell. If the place is giving off positive vibes, it will sell. Positive energy is more welcoming to buyers, so they feel comfortable and make a purchase. This energy can be intuitively discerned by people who are in-touch with their inner selves.
Practioners of this metaphysical approach encourage owners of property -- specifically property that is slow to sell -- to literally speak to the property. Ask the house, for example, why it is putting out negative energy and bad vibes to potential buyers. You should then ask the house what can be done so it can accept a new owner.
After that, you are supposed to listen to what the property says.
Desparate times require desparate measures, I guess. But I didn't think things were that bad.
Hey folks, I'm serious about this metaphysical approach and talking to your house stuff! It's the latest thing originating in California and Colorado, so it must have merit! One real estate agent has actually written a book about this approach to selling: The Mystical Guide to Home Inspection (Thornton Publishing Inc., 2005). The author is Faith Ranoli who holds a Ph.D. in metaphysical studies. She even holds workshops on this subject in Denver.
"A house is a living, breathing organism with a life consciousness of its own," Ranoli says in her book. "You have to tap into that consciousness to see what's going on."
Sorry, but I have to end this story now. I have to go talk to a duplex of mine that's not selling. We're going to discuss why the building keeps putting out negative vibes and turning off buyers. I think it will be a pretty one-sided conversation.
