Before buying a new flat, check these important directions: To avoid Vastu defects, know the rules from entry gate to kitchen.

Buying a dream home i.e. a new flat is a big decision in every person’s life. People carefully check the location, budget, builder’s credentials and amenities, but often ignore the basic rules of ‘Vastu Shastra’. According to Vastu experts, living in a flat with wrong direction or Vaastu defects leads to financial crisis, mental stress and diseases in the family. At the same time, a flat built in the right direction brings happiness, peace and prosperity to the house. Let us understand from a reporter’s point of view which main directions and Vaastu rules you should check before finalizing a new flat or apartment.

1. Main Entrance: The gateway to happiness and prosperity.

The direction of the main door of the flat is considered most important because from there positive energy enters the house.

• Most auspicious directions: Having the main door in the North, East or North-East direction is considered to be the best and fruitful.

• Directions to avoid: One should avoid buying a flat with the main door opening towards South-West or only towards South, as it can cause mental stress and financial loss.

2. Location of kitchen and bathroom

Fire element resides in the kitchen, hence its right direction is directly related to health and prosperity.

• Correct direction of kitchen: The kitchen is always in the south-east corner i.e. South-East Should be in. If this is not possible then North-West is another better option.

• Bathroom and Toilet: Toilet or bathroom should never be in the north-east (northeast). This direction is considered to be the place of God and having a toilet here is a major Vaastu defect.

3. Mathematics of Master Bedroom, Balcony and Brahmasthan

• Master Bedroom: The bedroom of the head of the house is always South-West Must be in the direction. This strengthens the decision making ability and brings stability in family life.

• Balcony and Windows: The balcony or open windows in the flat should be in the north or east direction so that natural morning sunlight and fresh air can come into the house.

• Central Space (Brahmasthan): The center space of the flat should be free from heavy construction, pillars or stairs. The more open and light the middle part is, the more positive energy will flow in the house.
