Dear Anon,

1. Thank you for the description of the condo.

2. Your situation seems rather unique.

3. Frankly, there is no current reference to your situation i.e. whether it is good or bad Feng Shui to have an interior that is distinctively sloping.

4. The only parallel to your situation is that some Feng Shui practitioners have advised their clients to get their contractor doing the flooring to gently slope the floor in the living room i.e. from from the main door down towards the middle of the room. This is not obvious to the household.

5. The purpose is literally, with the hope to `catch' wealth.

6. In my opinion, this is just an idea and from past observations e.g. of houses been advised to do so, there is really no distinct advantage nor disadvantage for this.

7. Therefore, in your case, if the slope is minimal, to me, it seems OK.

8. Overall, (if you can) try to check out how well the past owners (tenants) were doing when they stayed in the house. However, if there are situations where there may be a problem, then, one may have to reference it in relation to the birth chart of the house e.g. house built or major renovation done during that period.

Personally, if you and your family feel comfortable with the current situation, this is fine.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
