Dear Anon,

1. Usually those who can afford landed property especially in country, will find that house numbers so long as it does not sound dreadful is good enough.

2. Homes or landed properties in Sinapore can easily costs: terrace houses between US$0.8 million to US$1.5 million. And bungalow or semi-detached, depending on location and sq. feet can fetch between US$1.5 million to US$4 million.

3. We call house number - kachang puteh or this is a Malay word meaning peanuts " Feng Shui".

4. Symbolism is very important in Chinese culture and sometimes number on the main gate is elevated e.g.:

5. For example, if the house no. is 77, then on the gate the second digit (7) is raised higher.

7
7

6. Numerology can be very subjective. It can either be via the sound of the numbers.

For Chinese: Cantonese dialect group, who originates from Canton in China, and this is the majority dialect Hong Kong.

Number 8 sounds like `fatt' or prosperity in Cantonese. Number 4 sounds like `say' or die in their language. Thus 444 is a bad number for them.

For other race, e.g. some Englishmen is superstitious with the number 13. While others love it. So where to draw the line?

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
