Numbers have an important role in our lives. Numbers from 1 to 9 are assigned properties while 11 and 22 are considered the Master numbers. Whether to believe in numerology or not, that’s a choice. If you do believe in numerology, this is a rundown of what numerology is and how it affects real estate.

Just like location, budget, vaastu and connectivity are factors that can influence your choice to buy a home, for those who believe, numerology can be a factor too. Ever notice how most high rise apartments skip floor 13 due to prevailing superstition about the number 13 bringing bad luck. And if apartments do have a 13th floor, these are valued lower than apartments on the other floors. For those who do not believe in such superstitions, this is a good investment opportunity.

Qualities assigned to numbers

The Chinese do not consider numbers 4 and 8 auspicious and hence, most apartments and houses tend to skip these numbers. Numerologists assign meanings to numbers of houses, streets and floors.

Alphabets in a person’s name have a numeric value which can be added together to arrive at a single digit which is called the destiny number. According to numerologists, matching these with the house number can result in buying a home that has harmony, and helps you live a peaceful and purposeful life.
