Vaastu
Vaastu is a science which deals with the creation of harmonious energy field in a structure. It is basically a science of structures and to derive the benefit from it and to appreciate it. Vaastu is all about the interaction of various forms of energy in a structure. We classify various forms of energy as a heat, light, magnetic, electric etc. each can be converted to other and hence all forms of energy are fundamentally the same. There are some form of energy which we can see or feel like ordinary light and sound. As our senses operates in a limited spectrum, we do not perceive the other form of energy like ultraviolet rays or infrared or supersonic sounds, but they are as much real as the other forms we perceive. As matter is also condensed form of energy, we can easily see that all we perceive as matter or energy is in fact energy only. Thus we ourselves are a part of this energy field.
Vaastu is basically all about creation of this subtle conducive atmosphere in a structure. You have entered house where you find the atmosphere pleased. Automatically you relax and are at your witty best. Your responses are cheerful, careful, sensitive and measured. The house brings cheer to you and you in turn bring cheer to other because you are cheerful. And then there are those gloomy houses, dull classrooms, dark laboratories, stinking offices where you start counting your minutes to get out at the first opportunity. People throng to holy places, sacred temples, sea beaches, waterfalls and lakesides, all because of this ‘atmosphere’. Hence we have to concede that every place has an ‘atmosphere’ which either is positive or negative. While human being thrives in a positive atmosphere be bogged down by negative emotions in a “negative” atmosphere.
The Vaastu principle elaborates the type of soil, roads, obstacles shape of plots which are considered auspicious for man. It is almost impossible to go strictly by the vaastu consideration because of lack of space and virtually no individual control over town planning etc. that is where the whole crux of the matter is, and it can be deduced that the contemporary architecture would have to transform itself into “energies-aware” architecture seriously.
Just as sun rays affect everyone irrespective of his being rich or poor, in the same way knowledge of vaastu shastra which is based on five element of earth, water, sky, fire and air, affect rich and poor a like, without any discrimination. It depends upon an individual’s capability as to how best be can make use of this priceless knowledge.
There is a very authentic proof of vaastu shastra in the construction of a thatched hut which I would like to share with my readers. Lord Rama, during his exile in jungles, constructed a hut of grass. After ensuring the air and light arrangements, which were according to vaastu Shastra, Lord Rama was very pleased and commented “ oh lakshman, we will worship the presiding diety of this hut i.e Vaastu Devta because people wishing for a long life must observe Vaastu Shanti”
There is no civilization in the world which does not accept the established Vaastu Kala and out of building construction. Prof.Talbore itamelin, architect of an American University wrote a voluminous book “Architecture through the ages’ which was published in New York in 1838. In this book he has mentioned about the laws of Vaastu Kala of various civilization viz, Egyption, Roman, East Asian and west Asian, Japanese, Islamic and even Christian. The descriptions mentioned there are worth nothing. It is therefore; wrong to assert that knowledge of vaastu is confirmed to the Hindus only.
In hindu belief, East direction is respectable because of its providing the first rays of sun every morning. The rising sun provides new direction, new life and new energy, by believing sun as God. A hindu worship while facing the east while muslim prays the setting sun. he believes that the rays of sun at the time of its setting are colder.
He gets relief from the scorching heat of the arab Land and the thirst. Therefore, he faces the west while praying. The Holy Ka’ba was established in the west with the result that according to their Vaastu lala, every Masque should be facing the west. Out muslim brethren follow this principles scrupulously and religiously.
Vaastu Shastra is a system of getting benefits in life. How to eradicate the vaastu defects? How to get rid of tensions, mental problems in life? How to get rid of loans,debts, parental relations, relatives and friendship? How to settle a good house, flats, kothi, palace, factory, business centre,market collaborations and group of industries and more and more ambitious plots and plans? Please close the chapter of fail/flop/unsuccessful in life, career and business. It is possible only when the defects of vaastu are removed and the positive powers are survived in your residential/individual factory or business centre.

points to be considers
Look at your budget and determine how a house fits into it. Fannie Mae recommends that buyers spend no more than 28% of their income on housing costs. Go much past 30% and you risk becoming house poor.
Talk to reputable real-estate agents in your area about the real-estate climate. Do they believe prices will continue falling or do they think your area has hit bottom or will rise soon?
Remember to look at the big picture. While buying a house is a great way to build wealth, maintaining your investment can be labor-intensive and expensive. When unexpected costs for new appliances, roof repairs and plumbing problems crop up, there's no landlord to turn to, and these costs can drain your bank account.
So consider whether you're ready for the expense and effort of homeownership before pulling the trigger.

Making the Selection
Making the Selection
I'll let you in on a little secret. I generally know which home a buyer is going to choose, and I suspect most other agents operate the same way. It's an intuition. But I make it a practice not to steer buyers, and I insist that buyers choose the home without interference from me. It's not my choice to make.Real estate agents are required, however, to point out defects and should help buyers feel confident that the home selected meets the buyer's search parameters.

After touring homes for a few days, you will probably instinctively know which one or two homes you would like to buy. Ask to see them again. You will see them with different eyes and notice elements that were overlooked the first go-around. At this point, your agent should call the listing agents to find out more about the sellers' motivation and to double-check that an offer hasn't come in, making sure these homes are still available to purchase.
