friends78 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2012 haha, interesting topic you guys r talking here... the previous owner of my house is an intact family with both hubby n wife still very lovely to each other. but their 2 grown up sons(late 20s to 30s) are still living off their parents without perm jobs. i am planning for 4 kids leh.. scary... I won't mind leh... Kids living off their parents = parents rich = got $$$$, that's y kids not motivated to work hard. If i have the means... I won't mind my boy to chase after his interest/passion/anything he likes...Wow... U planning for 4 kids already... Hope your dream come true soon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

potatoes 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2012 Interesting topic.... Many reasons why one should or should not buy. I still think the most important is your own feelings..... I must feel comfortable about the place and like the place. If I have certain bad feelings about the house, then I will not buy. If the house is very nice and scenery is very good but I m disturbed emotionally cos I don't have good feeling about staying in a place where the owners divorced, then I will not buy. But sometimes we won't know the family marriage status when we buy, they won't tell us if they are filling for divorce after they sell..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ayazumi 0 Report post Posted February 6, 2012 This is quite common in Singapore. Divorce rate is high, many couples are selling their flats, and we are buying the flats. BUT, this is not scary enough. What scares me most is we won't know if we are buying "dead people" houses - people who died in the house. My auntie's parents have a neighbour next door, two different family stayed in there, two different people died in the house. The third family (just married couple) came in to stay, less than 1 year, the couple wanted to divorce. Now fourth family came in to stay, so far so good now. Whether you believe or not, the fourth family placed a very big and grand praying shelf and buddhas, facing directly at their front gate. Maybe their 杀气 is stronger than the evil spirits.

Where a "house" exists "long enough", sure have ppl died inside, so, what is the concern? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
