Buying auctioned houses

Within fengshui circles, it is recommended that it is wise not to buy auction houses. In Hong Kong, they call them bank owner properties.
Why?

We may think that the energy is so bad that the owner is affected in a way. This may be partially true but then there are some houses which were not occupied by the owner or were left vacant. How then has the owner anything to do with the fengshui of the house when he does not live there?

In explaining life and fortune, we may need to look at the law of cause and effect, the law of deed and retribution. Where a house needs to be auction, it somehow carries with it a negativity which is associated with the old owner in one way or another. The cosmic link may be so subtle that it is difficult to put a finger on it. Nevertheless, it is there.

We may rub our hands with glee once the hammer is struck and the deal is ours as very likely we would have got a good price for it. But looking a little further our gain is someone else’s loss. In other words, we gained at another’s expense.

Fengshui is just one cog in the wheel of life. It has its science and efficacy but definitely is not a cure-all as many seem to believe. The best fengshui anyone can practice I believe is to understand and practice the law of karma.
