Property outlook in the year of the Earth Dog

Singapore’s property market will do better in the Year of the Earth Dog, according to Joey Yap, chief consultant of Joey Yap Consulting Group, a firm specialising in feng shui and Chinese astrology services.

Yap was speaking at Joey Yap’s Feng Shui & Astrology 2018 Seminar, held at the Resorts World Convention Centre on Jan 7. The event, which drew a crowd of 3,000 feng shui aficionados, kicks off a world tour that will continue in cities such as Kuala Lumpur, Manila, Bangkok and Jakarta. The next seminar will take place in Penang on Jan 14.

According to Yap, the property market in Singapore will receive more attention in the coming year. It will “look good, but move slowly because the Earth element is not huge in 2018, (but) it is bigger than in 2017”, he says.

Yap also talked about prominent astrological signs and what opportunities they bring. According to the 2018 Ten Stems chart by Yap, individuals with signs such as yin wood are more likely to experience successful product or property launches, and those with yin fire will have more opportunities to buy good properties and to find good deals when selling property.

A wide collection of feng shui and astrology books by Yap detailing his methods and forecasts was available for sale at the convention hall. The booths were a hub of activity during breaks as many attendees jostled to buy them.

Yap also introduced an algorithm, created in partnership with EdgeProp Singapore, which makes personalised property recommendations based on each individual’s BaZi. It can be accessed at www.EdgeProp.sg/fengshui. EdgeProp was the official media partner for the event.

The official sponsor was EcoWorld, which showcased its overseas waterfront residential project, London City Island, in the UK. The development is located opposite the O2 Arena and beside Canary Wharf.

“Opportunities are open-ended,” says Yap. And “certain choices” determine your destiny, he adds. For those whose BaZi forecast indicates potentially more difficulties this year, Yap says: “If you avoid all the problems, your life (will have) no improvement.” His advice is to face your problems and overcome them to become more successful in life.
