According to Vietnamese folk beliefs, the seventh lunar month is the time when "ghosts" return to the human world, so it is called the ghost month. Therefore, many people avoid doing important things such as buying a house, buying land, moving house...
This concept has greatly affected the volume of real estate transactions in July. Many businesses even have to avoid opening projects at this time.
However, is buying real estate or breaking ground for a house in the 7th lunar month "bad luck" as many people believe?
According to feng shui experts, the above taboos originate from ancient habits. The seventh lunar month is considered the “month of the dead”, with the most rainy days of the year.
Heavy rain will affect the quality and progress of construction. Therefore, if you start building a house or break ground in July, it will be more difficult, and it is easy to be delayed or affect the quality of the project. Therefore, the ancients often avoided doing the above things during this time.
Therefore, avoiding the 7th lunar month is not actually a matter of spirituality, ghosts or demons, but simply avoiding bad weather.
Experts also say that home buyers should pay attention to the location, direction of the house, and direction of the entrance, not which month they should buy a house.
According to experts, the seventh lunar month is a good time to buy a house.
According to economic experts, for real estate purchases, the seventh lunar month is the quietest month for the market, so investors often offer promotions such as giving away gold, cars, or discounts to stimulate demand.
In fact, in recent years, the seventh lunar month is no longer the "long play" time for real estate floors and brokers. Many customers even take advantage of buying real estate at this time to enjoy attractive incentives from businesses.
Mr. Vu Cuong Quyet, CEO of Dat Xanh Mien Bac, said that with the real estate market growing larger and larger, the notion of not buying a house in the 7th lunar month is gradually fading. For many people, the "ghost" month is a good time to spend money because this is the period when it is easy to buy products at "bargain" prices.
" Many projects launched during this time often have more incentives than other times of the year. For investors, if they see a profit, they will put money down and no longer focus on taboos like before. Thanks to that, buying and selling transactions still maintain a stable pace, " said Mr. Quyet.
